Bligh" Date: Wed, 21 May 2003 07:58:11 -0700 Despite whatever political wrangling there is between userspace and kernelspace implementations (and some very valid points about other arches), there is still a dearth of testing, as far as I can see. I've never in my life heard the argument that we kept something in the kernel that didn't belong there due to "userland testing". That's a bogus argument. When I ripped RARP out of the kernel, we didn't immediately have a replacement, but one showed up shortly. So what? And in this ase we already have Arjan's stuff. So start testing his code instead of whining about keeping the current stuff in the tree. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
