Please make sure that such a patch is against the very latest Linus kernel from ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/snapshots. Also, the more comprehensive the patch's description the better - why it is needed, what it does, how it works, etc. Your 2004 description was rather terse. I seem to recall that the people who understand and work on this code discussed this issue earlier this year, but I forget the conclusion. Some archive searching might be useful. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ | ||||||||||||
