There are _tons_ of ideas to implement with kevent - so if we want, rate will not slow down. As you can see, from take26 I only send new features: signals, posix timers, AIO, userspace notifications, various flags and the like. I test it on my machines (recently one them died, so only amd64 right now (running kernel) and i386 compile-only) and some bug-fixes withoout any additioanl feature requests (almost, Ingo asked for AIO before New Year), but broader testing is welcome indeed. > If you wanted to make this process automatic, create a git branch that > Andrew and others can pull. Exported git tree would be good, but I do not have enough disk space on web-site, and do you really want to read comments written in bad english with russian transliterated indecent words? > I like the direction so far, and think it should be in -mm for wider > testing and review. It was there, but Andrew dropped it somewhere about take25 :) > Jeff -- Evgeniy Polyakov - 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/
