Andrew Morton: Linux 2.6.17-rc5-mm2
Jun 01, 2006, 16:00 (0 Talkback[s])
ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.17-rc5/2.6.17-rc5-mm2/
- A cfq bug was fixed in mainline, so the git-cfq tree has been
restored.
- Various lock-validator and genirq fixes have been added. Should
be slightly less oopsy than 2.6.17-rc5-mm1.
- I just realised that I've been accidentally not updating the
PCI tree for a while. Will be restored in next -mm.
- Has been booted and has passed various stress-tests on quad
x86_64, quad ancient-Xeon, quad power4, quad ia64, dual old-PIII
and a modern pentium-M laptop. So if it breaks, it's your
fault.
Boilerplate:
- See the `hot-fixes' directory for any important updates to this
patchset.
- To fetch an -mm tree using git, use (for example)
git fetch
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/smurf/linux-trees.git
v2.6.16-rc2-mm1
- -mm kernel commit activity can be reviewed by subscribing to
the mm-commits mailing list.
echo "subscribe mm-commits" | mail majordomo@vger.kernel.org
- If you hit a bug in -mm and it is not obvious which patch
caused it, it is most valuable if you can perform a bisection
search to identify which patch introduced the bug. Instructions for
this process are at
http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/bisecting-mm-trees.txt
But beware that this process takes some time (around ten
rebuilds and reboots), so consider reporting the bug first and if
we cannot immediately identify the faulty patch, then perform the
bisection search.
- When reporting bugs, please try to Cc: the relevant maintainer
and mailing list on any email.
