I cannot answer questions about Linux -- I merely summarize the kernel
patches after reading them. I try to make them useful to everyone,
but kernel hackers should take them with a grain of salt and read the
patches themselves. The patch file is patch-1.3.67.gz
These are from mec@treflan.shout.net (Michael Chastain)
[he might not want to answer questions about Linux either :) -russ]
- Documentation/devices.{tex,txt}: continuing development.
- drivers/net/slip.h: fixed #define bug that caused CSLIP telnets to hang
in 1.3.61-66 [Craig Schlenter].
- fs/fat/inode.c: give 'x' bit to .EXE, .COM, .BAT files.
- fs/nfs/file.c: total rewrite of read side for new NFS buffer cache
[Linus Torvalds].
- kernel/ksyms.c: add generic_file_mmap; remove generic_mmap.
