- perfctr was dropped. Mikael has ceased development and recommends that
the focus be upon perfmon. See
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_id=8102899&forum_id=2237
- There are several performance tuning patches here which need careful
attention and testing. (Does anyone do performance testing any more?)
- An update to the anticipatory scheduler to fix a performance problem
where processes do a single read then exit, in the presence of competing
I/O acticity.
- The size of the page allocator per-cpu magazines has been increased
- The page allocator has been changed to use higher-order allocations
when batch-loading the per-cpu magazines. This is intended to give
improved cache colouring effects however it might have the downside of
causing extra page allocator fragmentation.
- The page allocator's per-cpu magazines have had their lower threshold
set to zero. And we can't remember why it ever had a lower threshold.
- Dropped all the virtualisation preparatory patches. Will later pick these
up from a git tree which chrisw is running.
- There are still quite a few patches here for 2.6.14 (30-50, perhaps).
-mm2 and -mm3 seem good, at least compile and boot up :)
However for both, I'm seeing this when making modules_install:
if [ -r System.map -a -x /sbin/depmod ]; then /sbin/depmod -ae -F System.map
2.6.13-mm3; fi

Seems to be caused by this option in .config set to 'm':
<M> Netfilter NFQUEUE over NFNETLINK interface
Symbol: NETFILTER_NETLINK_QUEUE [=m]
Prompt: Netfilter NFQUEUE over NFNETLINK interface
Defined at net/netfilter/Kconfig:7
Full .config up at http://www.reub.net/kernel/2.6.13-mm3-config.
I suspect there is a dependency here on ip6_tables, which I am not currently
compiling in or building as a module?
