An updated ia64 patch for 2.4.16 is now available at
ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/ports/ia64/v2.4/ in file:

linux-2.4.16-ia64-011126.diff*

change log:

- update for 2.4.15/2.4.16:
- add show_trace_task()
- lots of SGI SN updates (most in "sn" subdirectories)
- IA-32 brk() fix by Don Dugger
- drop some of the more cosmetic fixes (they will be in the 2.5 tree
instead)
- fix EARLY_PRINTK (Tony Luck, I think)
- in iosapic.c, move RTE programming to a saner place (Alex Williamson)
- fix alignment of bootmap
- move machvec_init() a little earlier and call platform_cpu_init() at
end of cpu_init() (Jack Steiner)
- swiotlb.c: support "page" member in scatterlist
- fix asm clobbers in spinlock.h
- add more ACPI tables to asm-ia64/acpi-ext.h

This kernel has been tested with gcc-3.0 on Big Sur and HP Ski
simulator. As usual, your mileage may vary.

Enjoy,
