[gentoo-dev] test-report XFS-patch

[Rigo Ketelings]

I am testing your patch (r1-r2) right now, and the results so far:

While patching:

the next patch would delete the file linux-2.4.19-gentoo-r2/kernel/ksyms.c~,
which does not exist!  Assume -R? [n] y
patching file linux-2.4.19-gentoo-r1/kernel/ksyms.c~
patching file linux-2.4.19-gentoo-r1/mm/filemap.c
patching file linux-2.4.19-gentoo-r1/mm/mprotect.c
patching file linux-2.4.19-gentoo-r1/mm/page_alloc.c
patching file linux-2.4.19-gentoo-r1/mm/slab.c
patching file linux-2.4.19-gentoo-r1/mm/vmalloc.c
patching file linux-2.4.19-gentoo-r1/mm/vmscan.c

Because it nagged about 'quota'issues I swichtched off Quota support (first 
the XFS-Quota support, afterwards Quota-support linux-kernel wise) and then 
it seems to compile correctly...

Gonna try it now, and mail the results afterwards...Any suggestions WHAT/how 
to test ;-) ?

He forgot to remove his (probably by emacs) created ~ backup file before 
generating the patch.  On a fresh 2.4.19-gentoo-r1 kernel apply the patch and 
say NO to Assume -R.  Then continue on anyway and the rest should work fine.

I'm using his patch on a 2.4.19-gentoo-r1 kernel and it works wonderfully! :-)

XFS yes, but when I switched to the gentoo-kernel suddenly:

a. I got the time-outs on my NIC (eepro100) back
        [kernel] eepro100: wait_for_cmd_done timeout!
b. wacom-tablet stops working:
        [kernel] wacom_intuos_irq: received unknown report #1
c. My VGA-console gets f#^&-ed up (seems something wrong with the last line 

--> gives me diagonal up output (remember those 10 print "this is kewl!"; GOTO 
10 times ;-) ?

Nice to see ONLY the 1st time around ;-) !

Joachim pointed me to some changes regards the eepro100 (latest -ac patch) so 
I'm looking into this, but the rest ? 

While XFS worked beautifully after applying this patch, my experiences with 
the XFS-sources are WAY better...

Any advice where to start ?
