Changelog for uml-patch-2.4.18-8.bz2
Release Date : Mar 18 2002
Released By : jdike
-
Added a null channel which acts a lot like /dev/null.
-
Made UML robust in the face of tmpfs running out of space and sending
SIGBUS when unbacked pages are touched.
-
Changed the connection protocol to uml_switch so that it is versioned and
also so that uml_switch determines the data socket and passes it back to
UML. This requires the new uml_switch, so grab the new utilities tarball
as well as this patch.
Changed the assignment of an eth device's MAC so that it is set temporarily
to fe:fd:0:0:0:0 until it gets an IP, at which point, it is changed to
a MAC generated from that IP. This allows the interface to be brought up
before an IP is assigned without the driver complaining.
-
Added the ability for the command line to remove a device with 'device=none'.
-
Updated the mconsole help string.
-
Fixed the mconsole reaction to a too-large request. Also added a
version mismatch check.
-
Bumped HZ to 52 to make it divisible by 4 so that qdisc will build.
