I am trying to implement T/TCP in linux 2.2.14. I am using a Linux box as a

I would like to automate generating the prototype list for smbfs. The list
in include/linux/smb_fs.h is probably mostly correct ... or not.
Does anyone use this type of tool anywhere else in the kernel sources?
Any input on how to set it up right is appreciated.
Here is what I have right now.

Hi,
I'm trying to build a kernel for Cyrix MediaGX. Kernel version is 2.4.6-pre3
as it comes straight from the XFS devel tree.
Processor type is set to 586/K5/5x86/6x86/6x86MX. Everything compiles fine.
Here comes my problem : the darn thing won't boot. I've seen at least 3
different behaviours
I realize that the Linux kernel supports user
level drivers (via ioperm, etc). However interrupts
at user level are not supported, does anyone think
it would be a good idea to add user level interrupt
support ? I have a framework for it, but it still
needs
a lot of work.
Depending on the response
Can anyone tell me how I can use kernel hooks in my program? I want to
raise an action when a network connection to my server is established?

this small patch (2.4.5-ac16) adds Intel i815/i820/i840/i850/i860 chipsets support

Should work but untested (can't stop server just to test it :)

The attached patch-in-progress removes the per-cpu statistics from
struct kernel_stat and puts them in a cpu_stat structure, one per cpu,
cacheline padded. The data is still coolated and presented through
/proc/stat, but another file /proc/cpustat is also added. The locking
is as nonexistant as

Hi,
I hope that I post this at the right place. There was
no answer at various other places. Please CC me for
any reply.
I would like to know if the problem I encounter can be

The system clearly detected the upgrade and linux booted.
