Dear listmembers, could some kind soul tell me whether the following patch is too naive in order to try to add netconsole support to the sunhme - module? Many thanks in advance, take care Dieter Jurzitza --- linux/drivers/net/sunhme.c.original 2007-09-14 07:45:24.0 +0200 +++ linux/driv

Dear Mr. Miller, dear listmembers, ok ok, 2.4 is not that interesting any more - but would you kindly consider something for 2.4 too in case you touch 2.6 in this regard? 0: 181134480 0 timer:dead on 2.4 doesn't look ok, either. But, nothing really serious, just in case you'd find

Dear listmembers, any ideas, comments on this? The only thing I actually did was running xosview from *userland* and I can crash my system within a very short time. [EMAIL PROTECTED] MHz, SMP, Kernel 2.4.29-SMP. Thanks for any efforts in advance, take care Dieter Jurzitza -- ___

size-differences of long(userspace) / long(kernel)

2005-02-18 Thread Jurzitza, Dieter
Dear listmembers, one more came to my head, when doing either kmalloc() or compat_alloc_user_space in arch/sparc64/kernel/sys_sparc32.c, another error stems from the fact that in len * sizeof (struct kernel_syms) the sizeof operator returns 64 Byte (60 char + one long(=4)) whereas in the 64 Bit

Hi folks, nevertheless we may run into space issues because structures may grow on their way from userland to kernel-country, thereby kmalloc() calls are subject to earlier failures, as the maximum size of allocable memory for kmalloc() remains the same. See i. e. linux/include/linux/module.h,

Dear listmembers, seing the communication between Jurij and Dave I took a glance into the 2.4.29 - tree and found the identical code segment as discussed below. This tells me that 2.4.X is supposed to suffer from the same issues as you tracked down for 2.6.X, isn't it? However, what I did not fi
