This patch (which was not a build fix but an infrastructure fix that the kexec fix in arch/x86 depended on) is well-tested as well, it was queued in -tip on June 10th: | commit 91d48fc80f22817332170082e10de60a75851640 | Author: Bernhard Walle <bwalle@suse.de> | Date: Sun Jun 8 15:46:29 2008 +0200 | CommitDate: Tue Jun 10 14:41:56 2008 +0200 | | bootmem: add return value to reserve_bootmem_node() | | This patch changes the function reserve_bootmem_node() from void to | int, returning -ENOMEM if the allocation fails. | | Signed-off-by: Bernhard Walle <bwalle@suse.de> | Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> so it is a -stable candidate just as much as the kexec fix. (These are all fixes for long-standing problems so i guess it can go all the way back to all stable kernels that are being maintained.) Ingo | ||||||||||||
