It's meant to be pretty stable, not so much a testing ground for new stuff. I'd be very interested in feedback from other people running large SMP or NUMA boxes. http://www.aracnet.com/~fletch/linux/2.5.53/patch-2.5.53-mjb1.bz2 Since 2.5.52-mjb1 - config_hz Dave Hansen + config_hz (new version) Andrew Morton / Dave Hansen - i386_topo Matt Dobson + i386_topo (new version) Matt Dobson Merged: - numaq_makefile Martin Bligh - numaq_apic James Cleverdon / Martin Bligh - numaq_mpparse1 James Cleverdon / Martin Bligh - numaq_mpparse2 James Cleverdon / Martin Bligh Pending: Speed up page init on boot (Bill Irwin) Notsc automatic enablement Final bits of NUMA-Q / clustered_apic_mode to subarch (Martin) Full Summit support (James C / John) scheduler callers profiling (Anton) PPC64 NUMA patches (Anton) Scheduler tunables (rml) Lockless xtime structures (Andi) kgdb Various People The older version of kgdb, not the shiny new stuff in Andrew's tree.
