This is a 2.6.12 based kernel. I've not had a chance to try the
current CVS yet. The last time I checked the current CVS didn't boot
as is on a 4Kc malta so I've not been keeping current with CVS.
When I try a simple
strace ls
I either hang or seg fault on a 24Kc or 24Kec processor, but a 4Kc or
4Kec works. If I turn off the cache on the 24K it works as well.
Without cache it's unbearably slow of course. This is the same exact
build of the kernel and root file system for all boards.
The memcpy prefetch bug is still there for malta, so I had to build
another kernel. This is with a CVS sync from this morning.
The first strace ls works now, but the second time I do it it hangs.
Kill -9 frees it up and the board isn't hanging.
