Thanks for the link. However, you are saying that it is a different
toolchain based on GCC. I did not understand this sentence correctly.
Actually, I want to compile the sources using arm-elf-gcc command. Is
this supported by this codesourcery tool? If you have already used,
please let me

Hi,
I would suggest using ELDK. I have had an easy time setting it up in the
past.

Hi Pals,
For those who are new to linux kernel or need instant reference on various
areas of linux, the following link would be a good start :

sorry for confusion created by my last mail, looks like its only watchdog

Hi loody,
calling complete will make the waiter process runnable but won't
necessarily switch to waiter thread and make it run. Its upto
scheduler to pick this process from run queue and execute based on its
priority value. I think there is

You shouldn't be holding a spinlock for periods of time approaching
the length of a timeslice. The timer interrupt is what determines the
end of a timeslice.
hi folks,
I'm looking the source code about linux file system recently. I have scanned
over ext2,
and now I'm very curious about how does the kernel setup the ext2 up, but I
couldn't locate
the corresponding code. Could anybody give any advice for me?
Thanks,

I guess timeslice expire case is not as same as preemption. Or may be I am
terribly wrong.

I recently rebuilt a 2.4.26 kernel, and selected

When I attempt the make modules_install stage, I get errors at the end
when depmod is run (because I am cross-compiling on a different platform

Wow, you do realize just how old and unsupported that kernel version is,
right? Why not try something more modern?
thanks,

Yeah, unfortunately, I'm constrained to use that kernel version by the
hardware that I've got. A third party has configured the kernel to
support their hardware and they do not support later kernel versions on
it, alas. There have been attempts to run more recent kernels on their
hardware,

Hello,
I think you are looking for following:
fs/ext2/super.c:
init_ext2_fs()- register_filesystem(ext2_fs_type)-
ext2_get_sb()-ext2_fill_super()
For every file system in linux kernel, first it register itself with
register_filesystem().
Here this call is called when ext2 module is loaded.

thanks you all, Rahul's suggestion really helps me.

Hi,
My Samsung N220 has a RTL8192E wifi chip. The windows 7 driver works fine, but
I think the Linux driver is in staging. Does anyone know how to find out if
there is work being done on this driver or who is doing it? Flaky in Ubuntu.
