Date: Wed, 26 Nov 2008 15:11:14 -0800 From: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@...ux.intel.com> To: Linux Kernel Mailing List <linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org> CC: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@...ux-foundation.org>, NetDev <netdev@...r.kernel.org>, x86@...nel.org, Andrew Morton <akpm@...ux-foundation.org>, Theodore Ts'o <tytso@....edu>, Alan Cox <alan@...rguk.ukuu.org.uk>, jesse Barnes <jbarnes@...tuousgeek.org> Subject: oops/warning report for the week of November 26, 2008 In collecting this report, oopses and warnings with versions prior to 2.6.27 are ignored. This week, a total of 5450 oopses and warnings have been reported of version 2.6.27+, compared to 2198 reports in the previous week. This report is a bit different than the previous weeks; all 2.6.26 and earlier issues are no longer used, which means the top 12 has shuffled quite a bit, with some new star appearances. Also I've reworked the "are these two backtraces the same" algorithm; the website should now be presenting a more compact/concise view due to having the backtraces consolidated in a much more logical (for the human) way.
