Kernel.org Mirrors

Arjan van de Ven is now building RPMS of the kernel and those can be found in the RPM subdirectory and should be yum-able. Expect the RPMS to lag the diff a little as the RPM builds and tests do take time.

Key:
o- only in -ac
*- already fixed upstream
X- discarded later as wrong
+- ac specific (fix not relevant to non -ac)

2.6.10-ac7
+Fix failure at boot with some setups and ac6
Dumb bug indeed
(Alan Cox)
oFix random poolsize sysctl(Brad Spengler)
oFix scsi_ioctl leak(Brad Spengler)
oFix rlimit memlock(Brad Spengler)
oFix Moxa serial
While moxa won't actually even build on 2.6 the grsecurity fix is wrong (for 2.2, 2.4 as well). Without it being CAP_SYS_RAWIO a user can insert alternative bios firmware into the card.
(Alan Cox)

2.6.10-ac6
+Fix ide-pnp build(Alan Cox)
odo_brk security fixes
slightly reworked
(Marcelo Tosatti)
oFixes for Coverity Inc reported bugs
  • coda_pioctl
  • xfs_attrmulti_by_handle
  • br_ioctl
  • rose_rt_ioctl
  • sdla_xfer
(Alan Cox)
oImprove the no-overcommit behaviour(Andries Brouwer)
