This patch adds a file in proc file system to access the loaded
kexec_image, which may contains the memory image of kexeced
system. This can be used by kexec based hibernation to create a file

This patch implements the functionality of jumping between the kexeced
kernel and the original kernel.

khibernation - kexec based hibernation
Kexec base hibernation has some potential advantages over u/swsusp and
TuxOnIce (suspend2). Some of them are as follow:
1. The hibernation image size can exceed half of memory size
easily. This is possible with TuxOnIce, but impossible with
u/swsusp.
This patch adds writing support for /dev/oldmem. This is used to
restore the memory contents of hibernated system.

Hi,
The NFS crossmnt/nohide feature has been working beautifully
in 2.6.23. NFS in general has been really good in 2.6.23. Thanks!
However, starting in 2.6.24-rc3-git4, I immediately get 'NFS Stale

volumes. Regular NFS mounts are fine

This field and corresponding defines are simply never used anywhere
in the code. But its mere presence is enough to confuse some host
driver authors who attempt to rely on it. Let's eliminate the

A little patch to make my laptop linux-compliant. It is based on Linux
2.4.24-rc4.

OK. Finally have this thing painted into a corner: git has identified

Hi David,
might it not make more sense to put all of that into a new
subdirectory, say, /drivers/char/pcmcia/ipwireless_cs? that way,

I have done some raw tests.

The programs are quite simple. The sender sends "Hello World" as fast as it
can, while the receiver prints time() for each 1 million message
received.
