Other architectures (ppc, ppc64, sparc, sparc64, ia64) Module license support Exception table walk cleanup Documentation on writing module-compatible interfaces Modversions reimplementations (under discussion with Kai) - Requires a second pass, but allows mixing of versioned & non-versioned kernels and modules. Not done yet: DEVICE_TABLE support - Discussions with gregkh on not exporting the in-kernel datastructure and using module aliases. Other archs (alpha, arm, cris, m68k, mips, mips64, parisc, s390, s390x, sh, v850, x86_64) Q uestions welcome, Rusty. -- Anyone who quotes me in their sig is an idiot. -- Rusty Russell.
