I can't get it to apply to either Linus's current GIT tree or the 2.6.24-rc3 tree. Both result in errors. On the other hand, I have managed to adjust my patches to work with the 2.6.24-rc3-mm1 applied to 2.6.24-rc3. It builds for: MN10300 defconfig MN10300 allnoconfig X86_64 defconfig CONFIG_IA32_AOUT=n X86_64 defconfig CONFIG_IA32_AOUT=m X86_64 defconfig CONFIG_IA32_AOUT=y i386 defconfig CONFIG_BINFMT_AOUT=n i386 defconfig CONFIG_BINFMT_AOUT=m i386 defconfig CONFIG_BINFMT_AOUT=y sparc defconfig sparc64 defconfig CONFIG_BINFMT_AOUT32=n sparc64 defconfig CONFIG_BINFMT_AOUT32=y It almost completely builds for MN10300 allyesconfig and allmodconfig, but for asm/kvm.h not existing (header checking bug?) and a sample program not compiling (uses something not provided by most arches). Most other arches just don't compile to some extent or other for reasons that aren't to do with my patches, but mostly due to pgtable_t not being defined. I can even use the MN10300 defconfig kernel: -bash-3.00# uname -a Linux asb2303-4 2.6.24-rc3-mm1-g026f9b13 #3 PREEMPT Wed Nov 21 15:02:37 GMT 2007 mn10300 mn10300 mn10300 GNU/Linux Note, however, I don't expect these modified patches to necessarily work with Linus's kernel. There seem to be some general changes in -mm that I don't know whether you'll be sending them upstream or not.
