No, the PPC MM changes in 2_4_devel rely on changes to the generic MM API that aren't yet in the kernel.org release. You could modify the appropriate files in arch/i386/mm/ and include/asm-i386/ to match if you like.Matt, do you know the origin of those changes? Are they an invention of the linuxppc people, or part of the 2.5 tree? I'm asking because I'm afraid that these changes might not make it into kernel.org release for a LONG time...
Ask Paulus about the status of them being included. My understanding is that he has been working with the appropriate parties (i.e. Linus and co) on these changes. If you want something that closely tracks kernel.org then use linuxppc_2_4. A merge of most of the "new" ports from linuxppc_2_4_devel is planned now that organizational changes are settling down. -- Matt Porter MontaVista Software, Inc. mporter@mvista.com ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list.
