URL: http://www.us.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/andrea/kernels/v2.6/2.6.5-rc2-aa1.gz http://www.us.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/andrea/kernels/v2.6/2.6.5-rc2-aa1/ Changelog diff between 2.6.5-rc1-aa3 and 2.6.5-rc2-aa1: Binary files 2.6.5-rc1-aa3/anon_vma.gz and 2.6.5-rc2-aa1/anon_vma.gz differ Fixed silly bug in mmap(MAP_SHARED|MAP_ANONYMOUS) and converted a BUG_ON to a WARN_ON if some device driver passes non-pageable pages to the VM via ->nopage. VM_RESERVED it's not required with current VM, so even if the WARN_ON triggers the machine remains completely stable. Only in 2.6.5-rc1-aa3: linus.patch.gz Updated to 2.6.5-rc2 so not needed anymore.
