- The ntp/time rework patches from John Stultz have been resurrected and fixed.

- There's now a `hot-fixes' directory at the above URL. Please look in
there for any updates which should be applied.


Known problems:

- Sam has added a new check in the kbuild tree. It detects multiple
instances of EXPORT_SYMBOL(foo) across separate .o files.

It catches a _lot_ of problems. You'll see something like this:

WARNING: vmlinux: duplicate symbol '__down_interruptible' previous definition was in vmlinux
WARNING: vmlinux: duplicate symbol '__down' previous definition was in vmlinux
WARNING: vmlinux: duplicate symbol '__up' previous definition was in vmlinux
WARNING: vmlinux: duplicate symbol 'smp_call_function' previous definition was in vmlinux
WARNING: vmlinux: duplicate symbol 'iounmap' previous definition was in vmlinux
WARNING: vmlinux: duplicate symbol '__ioremap' previous definition was in vmlinux
WARNING: vmlinux: duplicate symbol 'ioremap' previous definition was in vmlinux
WARNING: vmlinux: duplicate symbol 'sys_ctrler' previous definition was in vmlinux

There's probably not a lot of point in reporting this if you see it.

Patches would be nice, but be warned that fixing these is not as trivial
as one might think:

- If one export is in generic code and the other is in arch code then

- If you remove the export in generic code, you need to check all
architectures for breakage.

- If you remove the export in arch code then you need to be sure
that the generic .o file a) always compiles in the offending function
and b) is always linked into vmlinux.

- If both exports are in arch code then you need to ensure that
the export which isn't deleted is always included in vmlinux when
the symbol which it exports is included in vmlinux.

If possible, the best approach is to put the EXPORT_SYMBOL
immediately after the symbol which is being exported. And if it's
a function, pleeeze don't put a blank line between the end of the
function and the export - I've no idea why people do that...


Boilerplate:

- -mm kernel commit activity can be reviewed by subscribing to the
mm-commits mailing list.

echo "subscribe mm-commits" | mail majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

- If you hit a bug in -mm and it's not obvious which patch caused it, it is
most valuable if you can perform a bisection search to identify which patch
introduced the bug. Instructions for this process are at

http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/bisecting-mm-trees.txt

But beware that this process takes some time (around ten rebuilds and
reboots), so consider reporting the bug first and if we cannot immediately
identify the faulty patch, then perform the bisection search.

- When reporting bugs, please try to Cc: the relevant maintainer and mailing
list on any email.
