The following is not the entire set of mods in
bringing forth the changes from 2.3.99pre2-xfs,
but these changes were necessary to resolve merge
problems. This merge did not go smoothly at all.
I suspect there are problems in the p_tools.
In any case, right now you can compile a 2.4-xfs,
but the kernel won't boot ... basically, an
initial scsi_inquiry command doesn't
generate the necessary interrupt response.
2.4.0-test1 (without xfs changes) works ok
on the same system (which uses aic7xxx scsi driver).
May be there is a driver issue, but I doubt it.
More likely, some APIC changes were not merged properly ...
If any of you can successfully boot the 2.4.0-test1-xfs
kernel, please let me know. Meanwhile, I'll continue
to hack at it till it boots on my test system ...
ananth.
