Good to see someone is still working on the megapatches
by imipak - Feb 16th 2007 22:07:17
There are probably as many other enhancements out there
that could be added as are currently in the set, but it turns
out that remains true even when you have added them.
Unfortunately, the number of conflicts between patches
grows exponentially with the number of patches added.
Sadly, re-use of code is still not as much of a priority as it
could be, and the vanilla kernel doesn't have nearly
enough hooks within those parts of the code that are
highly mutable to make patching a simple task.
I envy anyone who has the patience to keep plugging away
at this. It's not easy.

Respected Sir,
Thanks for your kind comments on my project this will definitely encourage
me to keep on working. Sir guide me for other enhancements that can be
added to this project. I'm trying to add support of Xen into following
kernel releases 2.6.18, 2.6.19 & 2.6.20 but no luck.
Looking for your positive response.
Regards

"Respected Sir"? I've not been knighted yet for my Open Source work... :)
Seriously, I'll do what I can do help you with Xen and a few other
interesting kernel patches out there. There is a lot of very exciting work
going on at the moment, although project maintainers don't always spend as
much time as they could on making it easy for megapatch maintainers.
