Linux Nikanth News (2)

After I posted Linux Nikanth News, the next LWN weekly edition's kernel page has Andrew Mortans reply to me as part of the Quotes of the week.



I was at the receiving end from the master for not writing good patch description. And I do not seem to have learned from it! :(

p.s: Earlier by mistake all of my posts were syndicated in planetsuse. Now it has been changed to aggregate posts with a specific label. Hopefully this post wont show up anywhere else other than in my blog. If you are seeing this elsewhere, please leave a comment.

Linux Nikanth News

I do not post many things related to computer science or what I do. So just to update some of my friends here are couple of LWN articles where I was mentioned.

I was mentioned for kreplace - hotpatching running kernel in Nov 24. And recently for the cgroup based oom killer controller Also note that both the projects were not merged in the Linus tree, at least not yet. ksplice is superior to kreplace and it seems to be on its way for inclusion, and user-space notification seems to be the preferred approach of oom killer control.

/me plans to blog more tech stuff soon
