I think it is safe. For one, it actually works. (Well, we've got DEVFS there in 2.2, and it doesn't even work. *grinnnn*) Also, it'll only affect those who're really using it. > hmmmmmm > joerg? > what do you think? I'm only undecided whether to ship it enabled or disabled by default. On one hand, we ship imgact_gzip enabled, OTOH, this one requires the installation of a package before it can be used at all. Anyhow, if the package isn't installed, no harm is done -- it's just the usual slightly bogus ``Command not found.'' message. I probably won't rush the LKM stuff however, since i don't have the slightest idea how to extend (or shrink) the sysctl tree when loading/unloading the LKM. Apart from this, the LKM has proven to work on my machine at work. I still haven't rebooted it at all, thus i don't know whether imgact_java.c would really work when compiled static into the kernel. :) -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
