| |
Hi all,
as suggested on the mailing list I have converted the updated LZO code into git, so please pull my "lzo-update" branch from
git://github.com/markus-oberhumer/linux.git lzo-update
You can browse the branch at
https://github.com/markus-oberhumer/linux/compare/lzo-update
I'd ask some official kernel maintainer for review and to push this into linux-next so that it will hopefully land in the 3.7 release.
Share and enjoy, Markus
