 Posted: Sun Jul 09, 2006 10:26 pm Post subject: 2.6.17-emission3: Mission: Return to Planet Linux | (Wow!) |
 |
|
E-Mission Sources is based on the Lockless Pagecache by Nick Piggin, GenPatches, and CK.
The main goal of this patchset is to stay updated with gentoo-sources releases,
offer latest features, decrease latencies, decrease overhead, and improve interactivity. Another
goal of E-Mission Sources is stability. I boot test each release and run for an extended amount of time.
/* Notes */
New version of Suspend2 and Lockless.
This release is much smaller than the last, because our ebuild now pulls in genpatches-base and
genpatches-extra in the same way that gentoo-sources does. Genpatches 2.6.17-3 Patchlist
Suspend2 has become a USE flag, because I personally do not use it, but I'll
leave it an option for you guys that need it.
I've removed the 'staircase' USE flag, and have defaulted to staircase in the main patchset. If some of you prefer it the old method, please leave your comments.
I've removed GregKH's devfs removal patch, because it gave a few people some grief with alsa-drivers.
Those of you with SMP and Reiser4, if you have any problems at all, please re-emerge patch with 'no-lockless'
USE flag. It has been reported by at least one person that Lockless and Reiser4 do not play nice on Athlon64 X2.

Could you add grsecurity to his patchset? I'd like to use emission on my home server, but I'm a bit of a security nut... and I'm sure a few more people would be interested in trying out some added security as well. You can get the latest grsecurity patches from:
http://www.grsecurity.net/~spender/
I tried to get grsecurity-2.1.9-2.6.17.4-200607091322.patch to apply, but it failed just a few times - perhaps for someone experienced, it wouldn't be too hard to fix.
Thanks! |

I'll look into that for you.

It actually only fails in two hunks if suspend2 is disabled (there are many failure with suspend2) in these two files:
./arch/i386/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S
./include/linux/sysctl.h
I'm not sure how important either of those failures are... or if they're easy to fix :-/ |

Hi,
i just want to say thanks - Emission3 is great!
P.S. Maybe it is a placebo effect, but i think that this kernel is faster than emission2.

Can you pastebin your .config for me? |
Disabling message-signalled interrupts allowed it to compile. What do you mean by pastebin? I imagine this is a better method than pasting the entire .config here. |

If you go to www.pastebin.ca, you can paste alot of information, and only supply a link for others, to view what you pasted. Keeps the forums clean.

Hi.
It seem then when using the EVO install guide 3.0 I get some strength erorrs in the install.
Sometimes I get "404 page not found erorr" when doing emerge, like when doing emerge binutils.
Can someone check it and fix it? maybe even rplace the overlays?
also, is this kernel is in the EVO install 3.0 ?
and, the server that host the stages3 files is really slow! Can something be done for this? |

I don't know why you are getting 404 page not found errors, maybe your connection is dropping? try doing an 'evmgr -u' to update the overlays. Nothing can be down to make the server any faster, here I get about 500K a sec down from it. You shouldn't need to d/l more than 100 megs from it.

amm. I know it is a weird erorr!!!
but, when doint the emerge glibc I get in some of the patches the 404 erorr, Why is that? and not in all, so my net is ok (ping and download work great)
and what is the evmgr -u ? is it matter? |

Read the guide word for word, all of this is documentated. Also, please go to www.evolution-mission.org or #evo-mission on irc.freenode.net for bugs like this. Also, this is a kernel thread, not a Guide thread.

Good news! Predatorfreak (Brett Goulder) will be joining Evo-Mission to become the new maintainer of emission-sources.
You may remember him from sk-sources, dark-sources, no-sources, and recently hammer-sources.
I believe he will do an excellent job.

That's awsome! Just out of curiosity what prompted the change? Will you continue to contribute to emission sources or will you focus on other aspects of evolution mission? Or is there another reason altogether? I hope it wasn't my annoying insistence at using reiser4 and lockless that drove you away...  |

That's awsome! Just out of curiosity what prompted the change? Will you continue to contribute to emission sources or will you focus on other aspects of evolution mission? Or is there another reason altogether? I hope it wasn't my annoying insistence at using reiser4 and lockless that drove you away... |
What prompted the change is predatorfreak asked to join Evolution Mission. IT was not because of you, and no you are not annoying. Yes he will still be contributing to Evolution Mission Sources. |

Hii.
I have been doing make menuconfig to the new kernel, and found many many new things, and I don't have .config file so everything is at his deafult level, Can some one please help me and give me some info about all the options there is there?
I don't want to start gussing, and it will be nice. |
