| |
Hi all, The Update Version patchset is a set of patches which include only fatal compile/runtime bug fixes and security updates for the current kernel version. This patch set can be used in production environments for those who wish to run 2.4.23, but do not use vendor kernels and at the same time require patches which add to the stability of the current release kernel version. This is a patch set only, it does not include kernel source.
Current version is 2.4.23-uv1 and contains many patches pulled from bit keeper.
The complete URL to the patch set is http://www.hardrock.org/kernel/current-updates/linux-2.4.23-updates.patch
Individual patches can be viewed and downloaded from http://www.hardrock.org/kernel/current-updates/
This patch set only contains and will only contain security updates and fixes for the latest kernel version. Each individual patch contains text WRT the patch itself and the creator of the patch, I will try to keep doing that as standard reference for the complete collection.
