Hi,
I'm running into performance problems with big (=fragmented) packets;
both endpoints are running kernel 2.2.18+Andreas VM patch. The
systems involved are each connected to the internet using 128kBit
leased lines. Network throughput drops from about 12/13kB
I believe the following patch fixes the problem (it worked on the few machines I
tested).
Is this along the lines of what you were thinking?

Ah. Sorry... Neil's argumentation made
Forgot to mention that the patch also fixes the warning:
`parport_pc_superio_info' defined but not used
for non-PCI, which was the original reason why I was poking around in there.

I tried the following commands with 2.4.2-ac7:

losetup /dev/loop1 /dev/loop0

My System reboots immediatly. I tried it with 2.4.2-ac4,ac5 too -> same

With 2.4.2 it hangs immediatly.

Alan added a CONFIG options for FORCED_DEBUG slab debugging, but there
is one minor problem with FORCED_DEBUG: FORCED_DEBUG disables

Hi all,
Could someone tell me where I can find a document listing all the
escape-sequences that could be sent to the console (/dev/console) and what

ftruncate() and truncate() may extend a file but they are not required to
do so.
