https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=396132 Summary: crasher module - why suse specific ? Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: RC 1 Platform: x86 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.0 Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: Kernel AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: roland.kletzing@materna.de QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- i just came across /usr/src/packages/SOURCES/patches.suse/crasher-26.diff (see below) is that for testing suse specific things or is that a legacy being carried with suse patchset , as chris mason seems to work for oracle now ? wouldn`t that be useful for mainline, too? Why not pushing upstream ? i thought bringing that up on kernel-testers@vger.kernel.org, cc chris mason, but i think it`s best to ask here first. just being curious.... regards roland From: Chris Mason <mason@suse.com> Subject: slab testing module --- drivers/char/Kconfig | 5 + drivers/char/Makefile | 1 drivers/char/crasher.c | 225 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 3 files changed, 231 insertions(+) --- a/drivers/char/Kconfig +++ b/drivers/char/Kconfig @@ -1049,5 +1049,10 @@ config DEVPORT source "drivers/s390/char/Kconfig" +config CRASHER + tristate "Crasher Module" + help + Slab cache memory tester.

But it's really not a bug in our kernel, so closing ;-) For such discussions, the opensuse-kernel mailing list is probably a better choice. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
