The only changes since the last 2.2.18pre24 release are the addition of a minor bugfix (possible failures when retrying after getting colliding kiobuf mappings spanning two separate process virtual memory spaces), and the addition by popular demand of the ability to unbind raw devices (just bind them to 0,0 to unbind). kiobuf-2.2.18.tar.gz has been uploaded to: ftp.uk.linux.org:/pub/linux/sct/fs/raw-io/ and ftp.*.kernel.org:/pub/linux/kernel/people/sct/raw-io/ --Stephen - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
