Some of those patches (seems 1919 alone from the KVM tree...) > are quite old. The first one for example is > 0001-KVM-mmu-add-missing-dirty-page-tracking-cases.patch : The kvm tree is actually a bit of a pain and I am considering what to do about it. The tree I am currently fetching into linux-next contains all the history of their development (at least back a considerable time). When they decide to send things to Linus, they seem to rebase a subset of their current patches onto another branch that is based on Linus' tree and then ask him to pull that. So the commits in Linus' tree never have the same SAH1s as the ones in the linux-next tree and in many cases, they don't even have the same patch-ids as they have been rebased. You can extract the commits in each tree by using the SHA1s in the Next/SHA1s file. So, for example, in yesterday's tree the SHA1 for the net tree was 6be832529a8129c9d90a1d3a78c5d503a710b6fc, so the commits are origin/stable..6be832529a8129c9d90a1d3a78c5d503a710b6fc. This doesn't work for the kvm tree (see above). -- Cheers, Stephen Rothwell sfr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://www.canb.auug.org.au/~sfr/
