I suppose this patch http://cvs.samba.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/rsync/zlib/infblock.c.diff?r1=text&tr1=1.2&r2=text&tr2=1.6&f=u i closer to what I need. It seems most vendors have only patched ppp's zlib implementation (drivers/net/zlib.c). I couldn't find that particular patch in redhat update kernel .src.rpm, tough. I guess I'll have to apply the zlib diff by hand. -- v -- v@iki.fi - 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/
