- {/ 2.6.18-rc6-no1 "Where is the love?" \} - Release By: cheater-conrad Release Status: Unstable Reason: -rc kernel releases, experimental patches --------------------------------- -{ Release-Specific }- - New release, based off of 2.6.18-rc6-mm2. Should be a good solid release, a two things were dropped that should be made note of (unionfs and preempt RCU). - A solid release, works very well, but a little more scrappy than my (Cheater's) previous releases because it was created during my first install of gentoo on my new system, and I was in more of a rush becuause I can't wait for my first boot. (And who wants to use a lousy kernel when we can use no-sources right :-p) -{ Patchset-Specific }- - No-sources is a kernel patchset based on Andrew Morton's -mm patchset. It contains numerous user-requested features, other things gathered from various sources, and some of our own items/patches to make it no-certified. "No-sources was founded during the end of love-source's reign by JasonF and myself. Our intention was to create a patchset that would be able to continue on regardless of maintainer and still live in the spirit of -love's original -mm base and featureset. Given there have been numerous changes throughout the releases, including different maintainers, but I believe through this philosophy a useful patchset can continue to be made." -joecool -{ Changelog > 2.6.18-rc5-no1 }- * Based off of a new -mm release (2.6.18-rc6-mm1) * NoSched series updated * DROPPED unionfs - New patch pending approval, not in patchset. * DROPPED preempt RCU - Unstable * INVOLUNTARILY DROPPED eremini's ck patches - did not include the extra cfq, etc patches. * SquashFS is broken in the broken-out, but fixed in the patchset. * vesafb-tng is not in the broken-out, but is in the patchset. * add-clockinfo patch is not in the broken-out (the broken out is slightly broken) -{ Patches }- (please not that this list may not be completely accurate) # No-Sched Series: 01_NoSched-prep.patch 02_NoSched-Makefile.patch 03_NoSched-Kconfig.patch 04_NoSched-implement-ingosched.patch 05_NoSched-implement-staircase.patch 06_NoSched-implement-staircase-tunables.patch 07_NoSched-implement-staircase-sched-iso.patch 08_NoSched-implement-staircase-idleprio.patch 09_NoSched-implement-ifdefs.patch 10_NoSched-implement-ifdefs-fix.patch 11_NoSched-implement-max_delay-stat.patch 12_NoSched-implement-max_delay-stat-fix.patch 13_NoSched-implement-max_delay-stat-fix-2.patch # Hot-Fixes for -mm bundled mm-fixes-rollup.patch # from Spock fbsplash-0.9.2-r5.patch | gensplash vesafb-tng-1.0-rc2.patch | vesa-tng # from -ck kconfig-expose_vmsplit-option.patch | improve explanations and make vmsplit visible mm-convert_swappiness_to_mapped.patch | convert swappiness to mapped watermark mm-lots_watermark.patch | Add the pages_lots watermark track_mutexes-1.patch # from -tiny cpu-support.patch movsl-mask.patch mtrr-cpusupport.patch # Thinkpad Patches ibm-fancontrol.patch ibm_acpi-thermal.patch linux-phc-0.2.6-2.6.18-rc6-no1.patch hdaps_protect-2.6.18-rc6-no1.patch | My port of the hdaps protect patch # Convert joydev for digital presses (optional/Kconfig Option) linux-joydev-analogdigital.patch # Fix support for ATI-Drivers fix-ati-build-1.patch fix-ati-build-2.patch # Random Stuff HZ-864-Kconfig-Option.patch add-clockinfo-to-timerc.patch prevent-backwards-time.patch no-preferred-desktop-opts.patch config-NR-TTY-DEVICES.patch realtime-lsm.patch # File Systems squashfs3.1.patch # USB usb-mouse-polling.patch usbxchange5.patch # from DaMouse daconfig-2.3.1.patch # tag no-tag.patch
