Re: synchronize_rcu vs. rcu_barrier
What's the difference between synchronize_rcu() and rcu_barrier() (new function used only by reiser4 code)? From the scant documentation it seems like they do the same thing. I'm now happily running 2.6.13-rc4-rt-v0.7.52-14-reiser4 which I compiled by adding #define rcu_barrier synchronize_rcu so there must not be that much difference =) (at least on UP, that is).

realtime-preempt + reiser4?

Re: i830 DRM problems
Sorry about that, we start to talk about it in private with Dave. But, I did not really it since Keenan Pepper told me it was due to a bug in the XFree 4.3 driver. I am now using Xorg and didn't see any DRM problem since. However, I can't confirm that my bug was surely due to the XFree driver and not to the kernel driver since Xorg uses i915 instead of i830. Keenan, do you have details ? Yes, I talked to Alan Hourihane about it and he identified it as a memory allocation bug in the i810 X server driver. It's not related to DRI - it happens even with DRI turned off - so it wouldn't matter which DRM module is being used. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/

Undefined symbols in 2.6.11-rc5-mm1
Hi everybody, I just joined the LKML! Don't worry, this is not just a test message, I do actually have something to say. I just compiled 2.6.11-rc5-mm1 and got undefined symbols "match_int", "match_octal", "match_token", and "match_strdup" in several modules. This is using binutils 2.15 and gcc 3.4.4 from Debian. I grepped around and found those functions in lib/parser.c, so I just looked at the output of "make V=1" and invoked "ld" manually, adding in lib/lib.a, and the modules work fine now. However, I don't know enough about the kernel build process to make a patch to fix this, so I'm just notifying people of the problem. BTW, I just got a new hard disk and put Reiser4 on it. It works great!
