Sure, it's now under way. If all goes well, I'll give you a progress report in about 15 hours time; but given the variance in how long it took to hit, I won't feel fully confident until this time tomorrow, when I'll update you again.Still running fine. I'll leave it running a few more hours to make sure, and then try switching to the patch Aneesh sent afterwards - or say if you'd prefer me to switch over to that one immediately.
The patch you are running on is what I'll send to Linus for 3.10 (+/- cosmetics). Aneesh second patch is a much larger rework which will be needed for THP but that will wait for 3.11. I'm happy for you to test it but I first want to make sure it's solid with the 3.10 fix :-) Thanks ! Cheers, Ben.
