Hi Andre,
I wonder if you know anything about a issues with AMD-Irongate IDE
controller and a Maxtor IDE disk?
Here's what happens: The thing runs fine in (hdparm -d1 -m8 -c1) mode,
giving good performance and no problems for some time (something like
some days, a week, a month).
Then,

Hi all,
I had been running 2.4.0-test12 for 7 days. Worked great. Then the
system just froze. No oopses,
no log entries, no telneting to the box, no SysRq. Hard reboot. Some 12
hrs. later I got the following Oops in xfs. At that time I was
installing Corel Photopaint and the install was going
with this error, receiving size was 0xf0f = 3855
instead of 0xfff = 4095 as specified

Subject: strange nfs behavior in 2.2.18 and 2.4.0-test12
Hi. I am having strange
Agree that it is different. But it confuses people to have two
idle-tasks. I suggest that we throw it one big pile, unless having a
separate apm idle task has a purpose.
You can't do that.
Sure you can, and it makes perfect sense.
Doing it this way is _way_ better for system
stability,

The mechanism being developed here seems a lot like synchronization
variables (aka condition variables), which are a part of the "monitor"
synchronization construct. There is a simple implementation of them in
the xfs patch. I've been working on a more general version in order to
aid porting

Hi,
I am a novice in this exciting kernel world, so
my questions may be a bit naive, please bear with me.(I am student at
IISc, Bangalore).
Suppose I want to wire-down( as they call in BSD ) a page in
memory, how I go about doing that? (I guess by setting the PG_locked bit

I know there are patches for this support, but is it planned for
rolling into the kernel by default to support Dolphin SCI and
some of the NUMA Clustering adapters. I see it there for some

Linux simply uses page-count for this. By using

How can I "erase" this 2940/255/63 CHS setting from the disk
It is far from clear that it is on your disk, so it is far from
clear that something can be erased.
First a few warnings - probably

Hi Ingo,
the attached patch (against 2.4.0-test12-pre3) should fix the
problem where generic_file_write() causes a page to be moved
to the inactive list when the program is still writing to it.
Does this patch fix the web benching bottleneck in tux2 ? ;)
regards,
Rik

Alan,
I am looking over the 2.4 bigphysarea patch, and I think I agree
there needs to be a better approach. It's a messy hack -- I agree.

Looks good.
I'd like to play with you patch, but certainly from a first glance, it would
seem to be sufficiently powerful, and significantly cleaner/clearer (at least
to me :-) than the current mechanism involving the wait queue games.

Hi.
This is the final version of my rcpci45.c patch. It is somewhat more
ambitious than the last one (which only cleaned up the PCI API), so
I would appreciate feedback since I don't know half of what I am doing
(questions galore below). It features:
o Conversion to new PCI API.
o Removal of
