In short -- we ended up agreeing with you. :-)
Whew, I'm surprised given the enthusiasm which you showed when seeing
Paul's code ! Really, I thought that you will choose Paul's code with
only the conditions changed as expressed in my last e-mail... as to
give satisfaction to both of us :-)
Nah -- my enthusiasm was more geared towards the fact that there
*was* a solution available (I was pretty convinced that there was not
-- my appeal to the mailing list was a last ditch effort).
But I would like to stress the fact that my conclusions came out only
from reading the kernel code; I only did some tests on the kernels
that I have running at the moment (RHEL3 and RHEL4 on i386). So some
real-world testing is still needed, especially on the kernels that
were "different".
Absolutely. Paul has looked at a bunch of kernels and verified our
tests, and we've run them on a variety of machines and it seems to be
working.
PLPA should be available Real Soon Now.
