http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/2.5/2.5.59/2.5.59-mm2/
- Added Andi's lockless current_kernel_time() patch again. It'll break non-ia32 builds. But it appears that we should push ahead and get this implemented across the other architectures.
- Updated oprofile patches from John.
- Adam's devfs rework is back in. We only had two testers last time, (out of maybe 150 downloads) which is fairly disappointing.
So if you use devfs, _please_ test this change and send either success or failure reports (not to me though).
Adam said:
If you want devfsd functionality (well, at least the "REGISTER" and "LOOKUP" events), you can get my user level program devfs_helper, which is a reduced functionality replacement program for devfsd from the following URL.
