Let's put it like this: the amount of problems I found by reading only about 20% of the kgdb patch justifies the statement above. Also contrary to your repeated claims many of those are not fixed yet as far as I can see. Also every time I dig into something new problems raise their head -- e.g. see earlier exchange with Jason about the likely bogus recursion check. Overall that's not a sign of a clean merge ready code base. -Andi -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
