I wanted to know what memcpy returned as a result, and if it
needs/should be checked. There are several places in the kernel where i
noticed it being used but i also saw a warning about the result not
being used, so i wanted to know a little more about it.

I compiled my kernel(for x86_64) and i was wondering why it had to
create an x86_64 directory under the arch directory?
PS. This may have been caused by the packaging script but i am also
not sure how to check (.deb packaging)

so would something like this work as intended:
BUG_ON(expect != sizeof(foo));
also what about bit operations? so like BUG_ON(s 3); would that
still be ok since it doesn't actually modify the
If you want something that will not kill the process when you close
the terminal you should look into screen.
Screen is a virtual terminal that is not attached to a terminal so you
can ssh to your machine from boxA and execute a command in screen,
close the terminal, then ssh to your machine from
What does this mean:
syslogd-listfil used greatest stack depth: 5788 bytes left
cc1 used greatest stack depth: 5664 bytes left
http used greatest stack depth: 5192 bytes left
(Part of the dmesg log)
Theres quite a few of them and I think it has to do with ram and the
amount of system stack
I saw this while compiling the -rc3 kernel:
