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/2.5.72/patch-2.5.72-mjb1.bz2 additional patches that can be applied if desired: (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 Since 2.5.71-mjb1 (~ = changed, + = added, - = dropped) Notes: Just a merge forward. Very boring Now in Linus' tree: - flow_compile Everyone and his dog. - ppc_kmalloc_bug paulus New: ~ proc_lock Martin J.
