I've uploaded Linux/390 source code patches for the 2.4.26 kernel to the linuxvm.org website. This file has the equivalent of all the IBM patches for their 2.4.21 "June 2003 stream," plus a couple of patches to fix compilation errors. Most of the work was done by the Debian folks, so thank them for all their effort.
The kernel resulting from these patches has been IPLed, but not much testing done. No warranties, use at your own risk, the usual stuff. All I'll say is that I spent a number of hours comparing the diffs between the vanilla 2.4.21 tree, the modified 2.4.21 tree, and the 2.4.26 tree, and the modified 2.4.26 tree. As far as I can tell, all the patches were brought forward, or superceded by other maintenance from elsewhere. (Not all the patches were in "mainframe only" parts of the tree.) This patch does include the timer patch, and the kerntypes patch. If anyone has problems, they're free to report them, but I'm pretty unlikely to be able to do anything about it. Perhaps someone else on the list will, though. http://linuxvm.org/Patches/ Mark Post ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
