2.6.36-zen1 "Aufs Revenge"

This is the first news article following the tagging and new features for 2.6.36.  I won't go into the details but below are some highlights about special code commits to zen-stable.

 

  1. "IO-Less dirty throttling v2" patches from Wu Fengguang
  2. "sched: Improve desktop interactivity: Implement automated per session task groups" patch from Mike Galbraith
  3. AUFS 2.1 - 2.6.36 support
  4. Many CFS backports from 2.6.37 to compliment Mike Galbraith's autogrouping patches
  5. Lots of miscellaneous writeback and mm/vmscan patches from 2.6.37 and a special fix from Minchan Kim to fix disk thrashing when under loads comparable to rsync backups.
  6. Late reiser4 support (due to late patch release on behalf of namesys)

 

The newest source can be downloaded downloads.zen-kernel.org: 2.6.36-zen1.patch.lzma

Everything else can be examined through our extensive and often confusing git log!

 

EDIT: Replaced download link with kernel patch.
