Date: Fri, 17 Jul 2009 18:15:40 -0700 From: "Luis R. Rodriguez" <mcgrof@...il.com> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Cc: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@...radead.org>, Ingo Molnar <mingo@...e.hu>, Ted Merrill <atheros@...uildsw.com> Subject: khttpd fate I was reviewing khttpd [1] history [2], and the last I see is it was merged for the 2.4 kernel with enthusiasm. I don't see any information about this for 2.6 though, nor can I find any other notes about why this was removed. Just curious if someone recalls why it was removed. Also, I really hate how trolly this questions sounds but here it goes anyway: Such userspace-kernel hacks shouldn't be necessary anymore based on 'performance/latency' arguments right? I take it khttpd wasn't serious but more of a hack for fun and now we should be able to laugh about it?
