- A few patchsets were dropped. They will come back. People who had memory
management initialisation problems will hopefully see improvements.
- swsusp resume on RH FC5 is still broken. It appears to be a userspace
bug.
Boilerplate:
- See the `hot-fixes' directory for any important updates to this patchset.
- To fetch an -mm tree using git, use (for example)
git fetch git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/smurf/linux-trees.git v2.6.16-rc2-mm1
- -mm kernel commit activity can be reviewed by subscribing to the
mm-commits mailing list.
echo "subscribe mm-commits" | mail [email protected]
- If you hit a bug in -mm and it is not obvious which patch caused it, it is
most valuable if you can perform a bisection search to identify which patch
introduced the bug. Instructions for this process are at
http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/bisecting-mm-trees.txt
But beware that this process takes some time (around ten rebuilds and
reboots), so consider reporting the bug first and if we cannot immediately
identify the faulty patch, then perform the bisection search.
- When reporting bugs, please try to Cc: the relevant maintainer and mailing
list on any email.
