Ian, thanks for the bz! this was patched in rhel5; why it wasn't cloned for rhel4, I don't know. the rhel5 bz was 245761. I ran Rik's clocktest program from 245761 (comment #22), and it failed *immediately*. I will file a patch for rhel4 asap, ask for exception, and ask for it to be included in 4.6 z-stream. Please us URLs which are visible from the external internet when posting patches! http://xenbits.xensource.com/linux-2.6.18-xen.hg?rev/87bb8705768 is the xenbits URL for the above changeset. Don: Unfortunately I don't have permission to access 245761 ("Access to some
bugs is restricted due to embargoed security issues or respect for customer and
partner information which must remain confidential.") or comment #22 therein.
Stephen: Sorry, my fingers are hard coded for the internal (i.e. local) mirror.
I do it nearly every time :-(
Justification for exception to 4.7: see bz 245761; same problems, same fix, (rhel4.6-specific patch above), same biz justification, same test program (comment #22 from bz 245761), use test program to verify fix. Please review exception, set appropriate flags. - Don ps -- if this is accepted/exceptioned into 4.7, I would strongly recommend it as a candidate for 4.6 z-stream. Ian, I will post the 245761 attachement to this bz, so you can grab the test program for your future reference/use. as for the auto-bad-http-link ... i'm use to it... i sub'd "xenbits" for 'hg.uk' as automagically as you use it to post .... old dog, new trick! ;-) - Don Created attachment 299179 [details] Test program from bz 245761; 245761 is not visible by all bugzilla accts... here's the patch from bz 245761. - Don Created attachment 299181 [details] Test program from bz 245761; 245761 is not visible by all bugzilla accts... here's the patch from bz 245761. - Don Set dev ack for Don.
