Date: Mon, 17 Aug 2009 11:06:00 +0200 User-Agent: KMail/1.11.4 (Linux/2.6.30-1-686; KDE/4.2.4; i686; ; ) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline Message-Id: <200908171106.00973.carsten.aulbert@aei.mpg.de> Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Hi there, what is the recommended way to incorporate newer EDAC drivers from 2.6.30 or later into the long term 2.6.27.x series? Are there ongoing efforts already we could just re-use or does one "just" take the latest patchset and tries to apply it cleanly (enough) to the latest long term kernel? Thanks a lot for any pointers/help Cheers Carsten
