Robert, could you give it a spin and see if you can still reproduce the faliures now? ftp://ftp.us.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/andrea/kernels/v2.4/2.4.11pre6aa1.bz2 Thanks, -- Only in 2.4.11pre3aa1: 00_3.5G-address-space-1 Only in 2.4.11pre6aa1: 00_3.5G-address-space-2 Rediffed. Only in 2.4.11pre3aa1: 00_debug-gfp-1 Only in 2.4.11pre6aa1: 10_debug-gfp-1 Renamed. Only in 2.4.11pre6aa1: 00_rb-export-1 Patch from Mark J Roberts to export the rb library function to modules (he's using rb trees in a module). Only in 2.4.11pre3aa1: 00_rwsem-fair-20 Only in 2.4.11pre3aa1: 00_rwsem-fair-20-recursive-4 Only in 2.4.11pre6aa1: 00_rwsem-fair-22 Only in 2.4.11pre6aa1: 00_rwsem-fair-22-recursive-4 Rediffed. Only in 2.4.11pre3aa1: 00_unmap-dirty-pte-2 Dropped, it generated a false positive on s390 that implements slightly different semantics for pte_dirty (using per-page physical dirty bitflag maintained by hardware). Only in 2.4.11pre6aa1: 00_vm-1 Only in 2.4.11pre3aa1: 00_vm-tweaks-3 Allocation faliures with highmem should be cured. Swap seems smooth and Andrew's workload also seems ok. Still untested on real highmem at the moment and I'd love feedback on it. I will be able to test very soon on real highmem too thanks to osdlab.org resources.
