2.6.22 merge plans

2.6.22 merge plans
[Kernel] Posted May 1, 2007 13:57 UTC (Tue) by corbet

Andrew Morton has posted his merge plans for the 2.6.22 kernel cycle. It seems he fears things aren't off to a good start: " The overall stability in recent -mm's was not sufficiently high and we ran out of time to find all the bugs. I shouldn't have merged all those patches last week - they contained an exceptional amount of garbage. This all means that more bugs than usual will probably leak into mainline, and we'll have to fix them there." Almost 2000 changesets have been merged for 2.6.22 (as of this writing); much more will be included before this merge window closes. Some highlights include lguest, the signalfd work, the SLUB allocator, and possibly the memory usage profiling patches.
