Hi all,

Changes since next-20080730:

New tree: agp

Temporarily dropped trees: acpi (it is being moved to a new tree and is just accumulating conflicts against Linus' tree).
v4l-dvb (got lots of conflicts against the version that was
merged to Linus).

The driver-core.current tree lost its conflict against Linus' tree.

The driver-core tree gained a patch for a boot problem.

The x86 tree gained a conflict against Linus' tree.

The m68k tree gained a trivial conflict against Linus' tree.

I have also applied the following patch for a known problem:

hfcmulti is not supported on big endian

The sparc(32) defconfig build still fails - this is probably a toolchain problem. I have fixed this by reverting the these commits from Linus' tree:

	UFS: add const to parser token table (f9247273cb69ba101877e946d2d83044409cc8c5)
	fix fs/nfs/nfsroot.c compilation (fb2e405fc1fc8b20d9c78eaa1c7fd5a297efde43)

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have created today's linux-next tree at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sfr/linux-next.git
(patches at
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/sfr/linux-next/). If you are tracking the linux-next tree using git, you should not use "git pull" to do so as that will try to merge the new linux-next release with the old one. You should use "git fetch" as mentioned in the FAQ on the wiki (see below).

You can see which trees have been included by looking in the Next/Trees file in the source. There are also quilt-import.log and merge.log files in the Next directory. Between each merge, the tree was built with a ppc64_defconfig for powerpc and an allmodconfig for x86_64. After the final fixups, it is also built with powerpc allnoconfig, 44x_defconfig and allyesconfig and i386, sparc and sparc64 defconfig.

Below is a summary of the state of the merge.

We are up to 105 trees (counting Linus' and 14 trees of patches pending for Linus' tree), more are welcome (even if they are currently empty). Thanks to those who have contributed, and to those who haven't, please do.

Status of my local build tests will be at
http://kisskb.ellerman.id.au/linux-next . If maintainers want to give advice about cross compilers/configs that work, we are always open to add more builds.

Thanks to Jan Dittmer for adding the linux-next tree to his build tests at http://l4x.org/k/ , the guys at http://test.kernel.org/ and Randy Dunlap for doing many randconfig builds.

There is a wiki covering stuff to do with linux-next at
http://linux.f-seidel.de/linux-next/pmwiki/ . Thanks to Frank Seidel.

This is not actually a GRU problem. XP is missing a dependency. Dean will post a patch later today.

Done. Also added maintainer for XP...

Yes, this helps, but there is another problem. When CONFIG_NET=n, these build errors happen:
