The tests (on x86_64) I have done so far were successful. My repository with the C/R patches on top of 3.2-rc1 is currently at: http://lisas.de/~adrian/linux-cr.git The development on the linux-cr tree hast stopped sometime around 2.6.37 and although those patches have gone through many revisions I am not sure about the latest state of those patches concerning inclusion. At what point has the discussion stopped and why? I have seen patches from Pavel about another approach for checkpointing/restarting but I haven't heard anything about that during the last months. What are the chances to get one of the checkpointing/restarting implementations included. What is still missing from the one I used? What is the latest state of Pavel's patches? Adrian
