Patch to drop into debian/binary-custom.d/openvz/patchset/ in the Ubuntu kernel tree Edit (10.5 KiB, text/plain)

The attached patch combines the upstream patches.
I can confirm that it works with the current tip of the Ubuntu kernel from Git.

It should be added to the openvz patchset, and will be included in the next upstream patchset probably (#5).

Hi Daniel,

Do you known when will available new kernel build with this patchset?

I've tried Tim Gardner's build: linux-image-2.6.24-19-openvz_2.6.24-19.33ubuntu6_amd64.deb
(built yesterday) but this does not contains /proc fixes.

Thanks,
Michael

Copied to hardy-updates. The new kernel was tested extensively by many people, who reported back in other bug reports. Due to lack of feedback, this particular bug was not confirmed to be tested, though. Please report back here if the bug still occurs for you with the new kernel packages, then we will reopen this bug.

I was just testing this today, I have deployed the proposed 2.6.24.19.21 openvz kernel and I do not have the issue anymore. That is great news that this kernel will be available in mainstream from now on. Thanks.
