Hi Roland, 

        When I tried to do a make "allmodconfig" or make  "allyesconfig"
from utrace kernel tree cloned from
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/frob/linux-2.6-utrace.git
I see  this error
---------------------------------------------------------
kernel/exit.c: In function ‘mm_update_next_owner’:
kernel/exit.c:623: error: ‘struct task_struct’ has no member named
‘parent’
kernel/exit.c:623: error: ‘struct task_struct’ has no member named
‘parent’
make[1]: *** [kernel/exit.o] Error 1
make: *** [kernel] Error 2
---------------------------------------------------------


In kernel/exit.c in mm_update_next_owner function (defined under
CONFIG_MM_OWNER) has 
---------------------------------------------------------------------
        list_for_each_entry(c, &p->parent->children, sibling) {
                if (c->mm == mm)
                        goto assign_new_owner;
        }
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Here there is a reference to parent element in task_struct. (guess it
should be real_parent.

I also faced a problem with compiling code in drivers/media which was
resolved by applying the patch at this link

Also you had sent a mail about the new utrace branch in the
linux-2.6-utrace.git repo. Is it stable enough to start testing and
making changes based on it? Or do we still need to use the master branch
of the same repo.

If we still need to use the master branch, when can we expect the next update
to this branch?
