The kernel handles the basic functions of the operating system: memory allocation, process allocation, device input and output, etc. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Rebase kernel to 2.6.22.1: http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/ChangeLog-2.6.22 http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/ChangeLog-2.6.22.1 Includes the CFS scheduler from upstream kernel 2.6.23. Users should update to the latest autofs package with this kernel or autofs will use excessive amounts of CPU time. CVE-2007-3642: The decode_choice function in net/netfilter/bf_conntrack_h323_asn1.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.22 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via an encoded, out-of-range index value for a choice field, which triggers a NULL pointer dereference. --------------------------------------------------------------------- * Thu Jul 19 2007 Chuck Ebbert <cebbert@xxxxxxxxxx> - restore the libata COMBINED_MODE hacks - set CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_PROC_COMPAT - restore the old firewire stack - new utrace backport * Tue Jul 17 2007 Chuck Ebbert <cebbert@xxxxxxxxxx> - disable the nohz and highres kernel options by default -- enable with 'nohz=yes highres=yes' * Tue Jul 17 2007 Chuck Ebbert <cebbert@xxxxxxxxxx> - gfs2: update to the latest - sched: fix show_task()/show_tasks() output - sched: fix newly idle load balance in case of SMT - sched: fix the all pinned logic in load_balance_newidle() - fix leaks of struct seq_operations - fix leaks of ref to user struct - pata_atiixp: add SB700 PCI ID - ata_piix: fix pio/mwdma programming - sdhci: add ene controller id - sdhci: Fix "Unexpected interrupt" handling * Mon Jul 16 2007 Chuck Ebbert <cebbert@xxxxxxxxxx> - bluetooth: hangup tty before releasing rfcomm - driver core: get driver properly during release - net scheduler: fix deadlock - input: rfkill driver screws up the CPU flags - acpi-cpufreq: make register write work properly again * Mon Jul 16 2007 Chuck Ebbert <cebbert@xxxxxxxxxx> - add proper caching of last_ctl to the 'unbreak SMART' fix * Mon Jul 16 2007 Dave Jones <davej@xxxxxxxxxx> - Unbreak SMART on libata. * Mon Jul 16 2007 Dave Jones <davej@xxxxxxxxxx> - Disable warnings that trigger due to disabled USB suspend. * Thu Jul 12 2007 Dave Jones <davej@xxxxxxxxxx> - Some systems have a HPET which is not incrementing, which leads to a complete hang.
