Hello,
I have spend some time making a patch against the Linux kernel to
switch to nanoseconds time resolution together with several time-
related updates. I really need support for architectures other than
i386, specifically a routine that has a very fine and accurate time
resolution (just

Close, it is actually an SMP IA32 box with glibc 2.1.3. But you've now
convinced me to not upgrade glibc yet ;-)

Hi,
Under Linux 2.2.x I used to be able to use ipchains to send packet to a

has it been deprecated in favour of a better method, if

Hi,
You may have already found out that there's a problem using
pci_alloc_consistent and friends in the USB layer which will
only be obvious on CPUs where they need to do page table remapping
- that is that pci_alloc_consistent/pci_free_consistent aren't
guaranteed to be interrupt-safe.
