is largely pointless as without a lot of work only the most

trivial of Solaris binaries can work with the emulation code.

What: init_mm export
|
||||
When: 2.6.26
|
||||
Why: Not used in-tree. The current out-of-tree users used it to
|
||||
work around problems in the CPA code which should be resolved
|
||||
by now. One usecase was described to provide verification code
|
||||
of the CPA operation. That's a good idea in general, but such
|
||||
code / infrastructure should be in the kernel and not in some
|
||||
out-of-tree driver.
