The upstream changelogs are monolithic patches with no documentation and very sporadic.
The only hope is that it will improve. (Redhat can do better, rrrright?)
I'm not touching that with a barge pole :) . On a semi-serious note I think numad was a stop-gap while in-kernel support was being sorted out. The program is sufficiently small that it can be understood without changelog messages anyway.
If necessary, through some future fork or alternate solution (like irqbalance -> irqd). Or it just dies out.
It's a possibility!
Indeed. I've no idea what the original motivation was. Jollies maybe. I've updated the package now with the new patch and thanks for the review and pointing out the option. As before, suggestions on what devel project to submit this to before pushing to factory are welcome.
"hardware"/"science" :p
Ore more serisouly, utilities. Base:System already feels like a dumping ground but is not wrong either.
numad is a daemon and the utilities project is described as "all the little shell tools that dont fit in other projects". It's certainly not a small shell tool so I do not think it is a good fit. You were joking but it looks like "hardware" would be a better fit than Base:System. It is concerned with the physical topology of the machine. Critically, cpuset is already in that project and in a sense these are sortof related in that numad depends on cpusets. -- Mel Gorman SUSE Labs -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
