So I looked at the patches posted and one comment is about the terse commit logs for some of the kcore_copy patches, for instance: -------------------- In preparation to add more program headers, get rid of kernel_map and modules_map. -------------------- Can't this be made a bit more verbose? Lemme re-read the patch... - Arnaldo
