Dear testers, 3.7.0-rc4 has just been tagged. It is identical to rc3, plus: - r245902: Revert r245355: change of clang-tools-extra symlink in the release script - r245947: Merge of r245927: Fix LLDB build on MIPS - r245948: Deprecate the DataLayout on the TargetMachine, and backport the 3.8 API - Changes to the ReleaseNotes. Those changes should all be safe, and I expect this to be an extremely

Anything that avoids the lock holder preemption nonsense is a _massive_ win for them, a few function calls should not even register on that scale. > +#ifdef _GEN_PV_LOCK_SLOWPATH > +static void pv_queue_spin_lock_slowpath(struct qspinlock *lock, u32 val) > +#else > void queue_spin_lock_slowpath(struct qspinlock *lock, u32 val) > +#endif If you have tw...

Hi, Would it be advisable to use SW-RAID using 2 different SATA controllers. My system happens to have both a VIA VT8237 and SIL3114 SATA controller, and I thought for both performance reason and redundancy using both for a 2 disk RAID1 array would be best.

Hi, I need to set up a small server for a group of ~10 employees (all using Windows 2000/XP, used to use a windows 2000/exchange setup). I have a linux server already running CentOS 4, so I'd like to do all I can with this.
