Well, you have absolutely every right to do that.

Congrats. That´s a very good news.

I can see a lot of them. I will try to send out a list to you as well
after doing some comparative study.

Absolutely yes. I want the things to be done in bits and pieces, and in
many patches, rather than keeping the development long and finally
submitting a huge patch some very day. Nope, that may not be the case.
Submit something as soon as you have finished, and then go back and do
something more.

That indeed will be a huge effort and great contribution. I am expecting
that it will definitely improve LTP code coverage as syscall tests touch
lots of part of kernel.

I do not know exactly when can this porting effort be completed by you.
But it would be great if we have successfully ported and made the tests
stable in LTP by October/Nov 2008 end. What do you say ?
