Fedora kernels are as close to upstream as we can get them, but we do add Xen, Roland's utrace and exec-shield. The list of applied patches may be a bit long but most of them are bug fixes that we couldn't get into -stable for one reason or another (some not upstream yet, some judged too big for -stable.) - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
