I would be very surprised if it did. Having a git commit Id, like d09c6b809432668371b5de9102f4f9aa6a7c79cc, how can I create a .diff file from that? > If it does make a difference, please provide the values for > CONFIG_HOTPLUG, CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG and CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU from your > .config. > > I would wager that you only have CONFIG_HOTPLUG=y, in which case, the > only difference over previous kernels will be that zone_batchlist() is no > longer flagged as __init, and so it won't be freed -- this was the reason > for the "special section" comment in the changeset, as currently it's > left hanging around for folks that aren't doing cpu/memory hotplug, since > __devinit was the closest that both cpu and memory hotplug had in common. > > I can't imagine that this would impact you at all, though. I think git bisect made an error... as you can see for yourself with the list of tested git Id's that I gave - it didn't test both sides of that patch imho. If you tell me how to extract a patch then I'll manually unapply it to some failing kernel revisions and see if that makes a difference. -- Carlo Wood <carlo@...noe.com> - 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/
