The HIGHMEM64G config option has had a depends on !M386 && !M486 for quite a while now. It certainly was in 2.6.25 already. So if you want PAE support, we do require that you ask for a kernel that has cmpxchg8b support (needed for the atomic 64-bit clearing of a PAE page table entry). Not to mention a CPU that supports PAE. And that is simply incompatible with "I want it to work on an i486 too". So saying "I want a kernel that uses PAE _and_ works on an i486" is simply nonsensical. If we ever supported it, it was a mistake, and wouldn't have actually worked on an i486 anyway. > Bug-Entry : http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10908 > Subject : IPF Montvale machine panic when running a network-relevent testing > Submitter : Zhang, Yanmin <yanmin_zhang@linux.intel.com> > Date : 2008-06-13 8:19 (2 days old) > References : http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=121334523711437&w=4 I think this got fixed by ec0a196626bd12e0ba108d7daa6d95a4fb25c2c5: "tcp: Revert 'process defer accept as established' changes". > Bug-Entry : http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10903 > Subject : ssh connections hang with 2.6.26-rc5 > Submitter : Didier Raboud <didier@raboud.com> > Date : 2008-06-13 02:39 (2 days old) I think this is likely fixed by the same revert as above.
