The patchset contains mainly scalability and NUMA stuff, and anything else that stops things from irritating me. It's meant to be pretty stable, not so much a testing ground for new stuff. I'd be very interested in feedback from anyone willing to test on any platform, however large or small. ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/mbligh/2.5.67/patch-2.5.67-mjb1.bz2 additional: (these two form the qlogic feral driver) ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.5/2.5.67/2.5.67-mm1/broken-out/linux-isp.patch ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.5/2.5.67/2.5.67-mm1/broken-out/isp-update-1.patch (shared pagetables - will appear later ;-)) ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/mbligh/2.5.67/shpte (some NUMA info, but scuppers some things) http://www.aracnet.com/~fletch/linux/2.5.59/pidmaps_nodepages Since 2.5.66-mjb2 (~ = changed, + = added, - = dropped) Notes: Now in Linus' tree: 3c509_fix Martin J.
