My patch set sits on top of that. Chances are that once the -mm kernel goes upstream (in 2.6.25-rc1), I can start building on top of that. OTOH, maybe I could get my patch series onto a recent 2.6.23.X with minimal chainsaw effort. > I see that you have an old port to a FC7-based 2.6.21 here: > http://people.redhat.com/riel/vmsplit/ > > Also, do you have a public git repo that you regularly publish to for > this patchset?

Since there is demand for them to be downloadable from somewhere, I'll also start putting them on http://people.redhat.com/riel/ -- All rights reversed. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
