Hi,
Here goes 2.4.27-pre4.
It contains a TCP update (backporting some 2.6.x work), XFS/JFS updates, some architecture updates, driver fixes, the usual...
Please read the detailed changelog for details
Summary of changes from v2.4.27-pre3 to v2.4.27-pre4 ============================================
<akepner:sgi.com>: o [TG3]: Fix ethtool -S o [TG3]: Make sure RX/TX flow control settings actually get set
<felixb:sgi.com>: o [XFS] Remove speculative preallocation from linvfs_get_block_core
<fsgqa:sgi.com>: o [XFS] Remove the 128K limitation on pagebuf_get_no_daddr() and allow the kmem_alloc() to fail.
<gnb:melbourne.sgi.com>: o [TG3]: Count rx_discards in rx_errors o [TG3]: Add more ethtool -S stats
<joshk:triplehelix.org>: o [SPARC64]: Pull in drivers/i2c/Config.in o [SPARC64]: Use $(CC) in check for egcs/gcc3 o [SPARC64]: Backport some lvalue warning fixes from 2.6.x o [SPARC32]: Use $(LD) -V for NEW_GAS check
<jpk:sgi.com>: o [XFS] xfs_iomap_write_delay() was doing speculative allocations without checking if there were any real blocks already in the speculative allocation area. This could result in an allocation that overlaps pre-allocated space. This would result in an ASSERT failure in debug kernels, or invalid output from xfs_bmap. o [XFS] Add support for allocating additional file space in stripe width sized chunks. A new fstab/mount option, "swalloc" has been defined. If specified when mounting a striped file system, allocation requests will be rounded up to a stripe width if the file size is >= stripe width, and the data is being appended to eof. The 'swalloc' option is "off" by default.
<linux-kernel:vortech.net>: o [VLAN]: Use KERN_INFO for VLAN_INF
<mhuth:mvista.com>: o [IPV6]: Fix sock identity checking bug in tcp_ipv6_check_established
<michael.waychison:sun.com>: o cramfs use pagecache

Dave Kleikamp: o JFS: error in __get_metapage caused by invalid size from ea_get o JFS: Don't return -EPERM for system xattrs o JFS: Make sizes of tid_t & lid_t consistent o JFS: [CHECKER] Memory leak on commonly executed path o JFS: [CHECKER] Dereference of NULL pointer if alloc_metapage fails o JFS: [CHECKER] if txCommit fails, don't call d_instantiate o JFS: fix hang in __get_metapage
