gcc-2.7.2.3 miscompiles kernel/module.c and it has been decided that
this will not be worked around. The new baseline gcc release for x86
is gcc-2.91.66 (otherwise known as egcs-1.1.2).

Hi Linus,
in the current kernel versions we have a lot of new list-style makefiles
(find -name Makefile | xargs grep -l obj- | wc -l gives 48 in -pre5) and
the number increases all the time.
This patch adds a new makefile ($(TOPDIR])/Makefile.inc) that can be

LT,
I can do it from user-space completely, but not today.
The tools are missing.
Also I have/will get my traces on my code in a day or so.

Those Oopsen look like they're from test10-pre4 (fixed in pre5). Also,
please include the lines beginning with "kernel BUG at...".

This is a long posting, with a humble beginning, but it has
a point. I'm being complete so that no one is left in the
dark, or in any doubt as to what that point is. That means
rehashing some history.
This posting is not really about select or Linux: it's about
interfaces. Like cached state, i

Hi Heinz,
it looks like the LVM snapshotting in 2.4 doesn't allow you
to create snapshots from anything else than the _first_ LV
in the VG...
I have run both the following command lines (after lvremoving
snap1, of course) and both of them give as a result that the
LV /dev/test_vg/swap ends up be

Linus, Alan,
I am proposing this patch for inclusion in the 2.2.x tree. (Whether it goes
into 2.2.18 or 2.2.19 is your call.) We have run this successfully with
2.2.14 through 2.2.17.
Our kernel patches help stacking file systems work properly in two
areas:

Note that there is another aspect to the efficiency / performance of the
select/poll style of interfaces not immediately obvious, but which occurs
as a result of how some (streaming/batching) protocols work.
An X server does not call select all that often (probably one of the two items most
