Do you mean these? rcu: make rcutorture more vicious: reinstate boot-time testing rcu: make rcutorture more vicious: add stutter feature I just fetched tip, and here, those two were committed on June 18 2008. They're in tip/core/rcu, but not in the tag you mentioned. JFYI, I found those by using "git log --grep=stutter --all", and then passing the commit hash to "git describe": $ git describe --contains --all 31a72bce0bd6f3e0114009288bccbc96376eeeca remotes/tip/core/rcu Björn -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
