Hello,
I am aware of work being done to create crypto patches for 2.4 however I
am wondering what kind of time scale is likely to be involved before a
patch for 2.4.0 becomes available and, more importantly, when such a
patch will be suitable for daily use (disclaimers
I hope it is reasonable to ask, how?
POSIX shared memory calls or sys5 shm

Neither hwclock nor the /dev/rtc driver takes the following comment from
set_rtc_mmss() in arch/i386/kernel/time.c into account.
As a result, using hwclock --systohc or --adjust always leaves the

sys_poll spends around 1/2 of the execution time allocating / freeing a
few bytes temporary memory.
The attached patch tries to avoid these allocation by using the stack -
usually only a few bytes are needed, kmalloc is used for the rest.
The result:

About bug reports, isn't a good thing introduce the sgi's lkcd (linux
kernel crash dump) into the main stream of 2.5? The main problem of lkcd in
2.2 was the lack of kiobufs.
I think it as a good thing, for distributions, the distribution guys have
the vmlinuz image of the distro, so

A 2.4.0.1 should be on ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/crypto/v2.4/.
But it has been heavily re-worked. I haven't got my hands on that one
and will keep quiet as to what extend that patch is produiction-ready,
but I remember that the loop driver in 2.4.0 still can stall your

Paul Gortmaker found a similar one for lance, so I'm looking at
some other drivers to see if this happens, bagetlance has it as well,
here is the patch.

The Linux pipe implementation is extremely inefficient for long,
blocking data transfers with pipes (e.g. what gcc -pipe does):
* 2 memcopies: user space-kernel buffer-user space
* 2 context switches for each transfered page.

I'm having problems with using xsane to acquire a preview from an HP
ScanJet 5P connected to an AHA-2940. 2.3.42 is the last kernel that

The symptom is that the scanner starts to make scanning sounds, then
stops, and xsane says 'Error during read: Error during device I/O'.
