I feel sorry if that's what you perceived. But I'm just submitting test results rather than complaining. I should actually be glad if my test system catches more bugs. ;-) And there is no way for me to sit back - I'm actually overloaded. Yesterday I wrote 63 emails, which is one per 10 minutes _assuming_ I'm working 8hours. You can imagine the works required behind all these emails. > If i haed a 8192 core i7 XEON machine i would be able to test all > mutations of kernels.

We tried hard to build the test infrastructure for the good of Linux community. And if you like, I'd be happy to add your git tree to our test pool - currently it already includes 300+ kernel git trees from various developers. It'd feel more at home to find bugs in one's own tree, rather than in the maintainers'. :-) Thanks, Fengguang
