A missing return! Ok, I'm too foolish. Thanks for finding it! > (But why the hell GCC 3.2.2 doesn't warn about it?) yeah, interesting question. I tried a (very) fresh gcc snapshot too and it doesnt warn either. Ironically, the only compiler that warned about this was gcc296. (hah!)

Your bugfixes/collections are now perfectly fine for 2.6.0 UML experimentation so i'll use them instead of spinning my own ones. (your ones are also better split up.) > 2)Have you given a look to the mm/memory.c change (what I'd split into > A-04)? Do you think that change can be safe even for the host kernel? tricky stuff - hand-building vmas is fragile like hell, and the vsyscall stuff is far from simple too. What is the main purpose of your change? Ingo ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials.
