You're awesome. We don't use XFS, JFS, or SMP for our appliances so
these changes
have little impact for us.
Just wondering, how did you remove RCU? From a quick grep it's used in generic
code like fs/dcache.c or kernel/sched.c. Did you remove process scheduler and
filesystem support for your customers too? Or I'm missing something about RCU?
Good question. One version we are working on doesn't even use Linus'
kernel. The appliance
does however. This one does require some tough work. The FS's were
easy. We have something up our
sleeve that will be a bit of a surprise to SCO on the horizon. Stay
tuned ......
