ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.26-rc5/2.6.26-rc5-mm3/ - This is a bugfixed version of 2.6.26-rc5-mm2, which was a bugfixed version of 2.6.26-rc5-mm1. None of the git trees were repulled for -mm3 (and nor were they repulled for -mm2). The aim here is to get all the stupid bugs out of the way so that some serious MM testing can be performed. - Please perform some serious MM testing. Boilerplate: - See the `hot-fixes' directory for any important updates to this patchset. - To fetch an -mm tree using git, use (for example) git-fetch git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/smurf/linux-trees.git tag v2.6.16-rc2-mm1 git-checkout -b local-v2.6.16-rc2-mm1 v2.6.16-rc2-mm1 - -mm kernel commit activity can be reviewed by subscribing to the mm-commits mailing list. echo "subscribe mm-commits" | mail majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx - If you hit a bug in -mm and it is not obvious which patch caused it, it is most valuable if you can perform a bisection search to identify which patch introduced the bug. Instructions for this process are at http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/bisecting-mm-trees.txt But beware that this process takes some time (around ten rebuilds and reboots), so consider reporting the bug first and if we cannot immediately identify the faulty patch, then perform the bisection search. - When reporting bugs, please try to Cc: the relevant maintainer and mailing list on any email. - When reporting bugs in this kernel via email, please also rewrite the email Subject: in some manner to reflect the nature of the bug. Some developers filter by Subject: when looking for messages to read. - Occasional snapshots of the -mm lineup are uploaded to ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/mm/ and are announced on the mm-commits list. These probably are at least compilable. - More-than-daily -mm snapshots may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/. These are almost certainly not compileable.
