Kiedy pojawi się kernel 2.6.0? Nie wiem dokładnie. Wiem za to, że aby drzewo 2.5.x zostało uznane za stabilne, musi zostać dokładnie przetestowane.
Prace nad 2.5.x trwają już niepierwszy miesiąc i wszystko zaczyna wyglądać nawet całkiem stabilnie. Pora zabrać się za testowanie na własnym komputerze. Oczywiście, nie jest dobrym pomysłem instalowanie 2.5.66 na firmowym serwerze i odpuszczenie sobie robienia backupów, ale na jakiejś nieużywanej maszynie – czemu nie?
Idealną okazją do rozpoczęcia testów jest pojawienie się Linuksa 2.5.66, który w poniedziałek trafił na serwery. Skrótową listę zmian można podejrzeć poniżej, jest tego naprawdę dużo. Nowe jądro można skopiować z Kernel.org, można też użyć niewolnego BitKeepera. Aby ściągnąć pełne źródła tą drugą metodą, trzeba wydać komendę bk clone -q http://linux.bkbits.net/linux-2.5 linus-2.5. Po chwili – krótszej lub dłuższej, zależy od szybkości łącza, w katalogu linux-2.5 będziemy mieli ponad sto megabajtów danych. Miłej kompilacji…

Also killed off static buffer for accel_putcs o [ATY128 FBDEV] Moved aty128fb to aty/ and a few minor changes so aty128fb.c compiles with the newest compiler standards o [FBDEV] Enhanced data buffer management for drawing very large images o [FBDEV] Menu cleanups. Added in depenedency needed. More cleanup in fbcon layer o [CONSOLE] Nuked a few gloabl variables. Now that the console system supports different sized screens these gloabl variables are a bad idea o [FBCON] Killing off more cursor fields in struct display. Use what is in struct vc_data o [FBCON] Cursor handling clean up. I nuked several static variables o [FBCON]More optimizations. Removed moving struct display around o [FBDEV] Killed of a static buffer in the generic software cursor.

The reason being was some of the code in the upper layers depended on the data being passed to the low level function not be altered because the upper layers was altering the data themselves o [RADEON FBDEV] Add cursor support. Now the cursor is back o [RIVA FBDEV] SUpprot Directcolor mode. Needed for some cards o [ATY FBDEV] Updates to support Rage Mobility Chipstes o [ATY FBDEV] Reversed mobilty patches.

This causes all CLUT entries to be fully transparent on hardware that does have transparency information in the CLUT registers. o [FBDEV] Ug!!! For some reason BK keeps removing this change.

Again o Avoid warning with modern gcc's in xfrm_policy.c o Alan broke the build. Fix it thusly o Use '#ifdef' instead of '#if' to test CONFIG_xxxx variables. It works both ways, but anal compilers will warn about using identifiers that have never been defined in preprocessor expression statements. o Use '#ifdef' to check for CONFIG_xxx definitions o Avoid using the gcc-ism of creating an anonymous structure directly by having a cast followed by an initializer. It seems even gcc can't do it right anyway in some versions (as reported by Jens Axboe). Luis F. Ortiz <lfo@polyad.org>: o [SPARC64]: Define IDE MAX_HWIFS like x86 Matthew Wilcox <willy@debian.org>: o PARISC update o [NET]: Optimize handling of CONFIG_NET=n Nathan Scott <nathans@sgi.com>: o [XFS] First stage of behavior code cleanup - removes a bunch of unused macros related to read/write locking the behavior change. o [XFS] Export end_buffer_async_write, needed for unwritten extent support in XFS o [XFS] Implement support for unwritten extents in XFS o [XFS] Find more appropriate homes for uuid_t, timespec_t and xfs_dirent_t defs o [XFS] Remove unneeded initialisations to zero, formatting cleanups, remove a no-longer-correct-comment, fix up symlink error path code, several minor changes to help keep this code more in sync with 2.4. o [XFS] Fix permission checks for some ioctls. Its now possible for ordinary users to use the preallocation calls if unwritten extents are enabled, and a couple of places where we were allowing operations if unwritten extents are enabled, but shouldn't have been, have been closed up. Neil Brown <neilb@cse.unsw.edu.au>: o Fix a few MD bugs o Remove obsolete NFSD syscall varients Oleg Drokin <green@linuxhacker.ru>: o USB: Memleak in drivers/usb/hub.c::usb_reset_device Oliver Neukum <oliver@neukum.name>: o USB: fix to synchronous API regarding memory allocation Osamu Tomita <tomita@cinet.co.jp>: o Support PC-9800 subarchitecture (9/14) NIC Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>: o PPC32: Make a ppc32 version of pcibios_resource_to_bus, which adds an offset where needed. o PPC32: Makefile tidy-up, mostly from Sam Ravnborg o PPC32: Fix asm/rtc.h so drivers/char/genrtc.c compiles o PPC32: Convert uses of ide_ioreg_t to unsigned long o PPC32: Fix ide_init_hwif_ports for powermac o update macintosh-specific headers o update via-cuda driver o SMP-safe macserial driver o update via-pmu driver o update MESH scsi driver o update mac53c94 scsi driver o fix powerbook media bay Petr Vandrovec <vandrove@vc.cvut.cz>: o Fix ncpfs and rpcgss order in fs/Kconfig Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@verizon.net>: o USB: reduce stack usage in cdc-ether o reduce stack in cdrom/optcd.c o reduce stack in wireless/airo.c Russell King <rmk@flint.arm.linux.org.uk>: o [ARM] Minor updates/fixes to ARM PCI support code o [ARM] Fix timeouts to use the correct type o [ARM] Remove explicit IRQ disable/enable in PXA timer IRQ o [ARM] Add typechecking to local_irq_save() o [ARM] Update CLPS7500 support o [ARM] Distinguish between the various oops messages better o [ARM] Ensure transmitter starts before leaving ssp_write_word() o [ARM] Fix more timeouts to use correct type o [ARM] Add L1_CACHE_SHIFT to asm-arm/cache.h o [ARM] Update Acorn SCSI drivers o [ARM] Fix CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_GOV_USERSPACE warning o [ARM] Remove head-netwinder.S Scott Feldman <scott.feldman@intel.com>: o [E100] back out memleak patch cuz it messed up following o [E100] Update Documentation/networking/e100.txt o [E100] update version, copyright year, changelog o [E100] Spelling mistakes o [E100] Add support for VLAN hw offload o [E100] Clean up #include order o [E100] Bug fix on setting up Tx csum o [E100] Banish strong branding marketing strings o [E100] forced speed/duplex link recover o [E100] ICH5 support added o [E100] Honor WOL settings in EEPROM o [E100] interrupt handler free fix o [E100] Validate updates to MAC address o [E100] ethtool EEPROM and GSTRING fixes o [E100] ASF wakeup enabled, but only if set in EEPROM o [E1000] Increase default Rx descriptors to 256 Sridhar Samudrala <sri@us.ibm.com>: o [SCTP] accept() support for TCP-style SCTP sockets o [SCTP] Minor changes for tcp-style socket support Stephen Lord <lord@sgi.com>: o [XFS] initialize the iovec length in symlink cases o [XFS] If cmn_err is called with a CR character at the end of the input then do not add one. o [XFS] remove _KERNEL from the flags used to turn macros into functions o [XFS] rework readdir to be closer to the irix model internally, do all the filldir fixup at the linvfs layer. This is the V2 directory component, the V1 code still needs fixing up. We now return the same directory offsets as Irix does. o [XFS] validate_fields is called on a vnode to update directory related fields after a create/remove etc. Make sure we pass in all the flags for the status fields we want. NBLOCKS was missing and working by accident. o [XFS] prevent readdir from returning offsets of more than 2^31, these confuse user space. This limits the maximum amount of names in a directory on linux to 2Gbytes, which should not be a problem. o [XFS] remove a couple more sync transactions from xfs o [XFS] fix a couple of kmem issues, check for OOM in kmem_relalloc more and in the out of mem case, panic in the sleep case, not the non-sleep case. o [XFS] remove bad debug code o [XFS] move vn_alloc stat from xfs_iget to vn_initialize o [XFS] reduce byte swapping and spinlock usage in log write path o [XFS] remove some unbounded loops from the unwritten and unmapped page processing code. As files get larger, these code paths have the potential to hog the cpu for long periods of time. Just cap the unmapped page case, and the unwritten one is supposed to be stopping at the end of the extent anyway.
