The system seems stable, but it maintains a load average of 1 when nothing is running. I.e., the load is always too high by 1. System is a uniprocessor p100 which ran 2.1.36 flawlessly.
Also, to make compiling easier, smp.h needs
#define hard_smp_processor_id() 0
and arch/i386/lib/Makefile needs
CFLAGS := $(CFLAGS) -fno-inline-functions
This second one is a problem where newer pgcc snapshots [and thus the long-awaited 2.8.0] will aggressively inline the code and cause multiply defined symbols in checksum.c. Shouldn't affect performance as I don't see any code that would benefit from inlining in there. -- _ ____ Joe Fouche (jf@ugcs.caltech.edu) ___| |--- Deranged College Student
