I seem to have found what looks like it in: linux-2.4.21-selected-ac-bits.patch linux-2.4.21-tunable-overcommit.patch But many of the other patches messes with mmap.c, as well :-), so I guess there is some tracking assignment ahead... But nevertheless, thanks for pointing me to the source... BR, Martin Egholm
