[PATCH] IPV6: Disallow RH0 by default.

2007-04-26T05:06:33Z

[IPV6]: Disallow RH0 by default. A security issue is emerging. Disallow Routing Header Type 0 by default as we have been doing for IPv4. Note: We allow RH2 by default because it is harmless. Signed-off-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki Signed-off-by: David S. Miller Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

[PATCH] sysrq: showBlockedTasks is sysrq-W

2007-02-02T00:22:42Z

Change SysRq showBlockedTasks from sysrq-X to sysrq-W and show that in the Help message. It was previously done via X, but X is already used for Xmon on ppc & powerpc platforms and this collision needs to be avoided. All callers of register_sysrq_key() are now marked in the sysrq op/key table. I didn't mark 'h' as Help because Help is just printed for any unknown key, such as '?'. Added some omitted sysrq key entries in the sysrq.txt file. Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds
