2.6.12-rc2-love1 (Multiple CPU Schedulers)

As i said on the main side:

@Fallow and Lovechild:
Do the patchset as you want it to be. I am still using reiser4, but the only reason, why i didnt switched back to xfs/ext3/jfs is only because i am to lazy. Maybe you can give a little kick to whip reiser4 out of my system.

@all

What do you think about a filesystem, that has great speed issues on writing files to disk (including copying, moving, deleting)?

Great! ok, full ack!

ok, and what, if these filesystem is more unstable than other fses? not so good? ok!

And what, if these fs isnt even unstable but got also a very high CPU-Usage, very high Memory-Usage? Then none would use it for a desktop system, right? RIGHT! A fs could be as fast as impossible, but nobody would use it for a Desktop-PC because the downgrade of Latency, that MUST come with these high cpu- and memory-usage, is indiscustable. We would use it for a File-Server, right? RIGHT!

But for a desktop-pc, we need a fast fs, that has a great latency, and hasnt so much ram or cpu-usage, because we want an optimal performance for Desktop and exspecially an optimal Latency for the desktop.

But, if that all is right, (and it MUST be right, because we are all intelligent people and dont belive every shit that the TV told us (Hey thats why we dont use buggy MakroHard, but lovely tuxy as our os)),
why are there so much users of reiser4?

I use it, yes. I want to test it on my own. I did the test, and the test said to me, that reiser4 isnt a good choice for my desktop. And now i am to lazy to bring my good old xfs/ext3/jfs back on the hd.

Yes, it is fast! Oh hell yeah! its really fast. but it is no good choice for a desktop pc.

just my 2 cents

EDIT: If you dont believe me, you can test in on your own. a real simple test:

patch reiser4 to a plain vanilla-kernel. Copy large couples of files between 2 disks. at the same time start compiling 2 programms (maybe 2 different kernel or emerge 2 programms). Start xmms and play a few mp3s. Have you got lags in your music?

And now do the same with an ext3/xfs/jfs system. have you got now any lags in your music?

As i said on the main site:

Thanks fallow for your great work and you are welcome to join my own patchset projekt, wich i plan to start in the near future.

thanks fallow you've been a great love-source maintainer. i agree with you on the ricer thang and would like very much like to have a rock solid kernel with great interactivity. hope you can obtain that on vivid. the thing i loved the most on the latest love was selectable cpu and io scheduler and id love to see that on vivid, if it applies. :wink:

cheers !

thanks a lot for yr. work fallow, yr. releases were great, some of them just amazing (on boot selectable cpu sched, on-the-fly changeable io-sched...)...

cheers

PS. I thought yr. love maintenance won't end like this... Love-sources isn't a commercial product (like a hamburguer), if people wants some nasty things on it and you, the patchset developer, don't want so, let's keep them both out... There are another patchsets... This is not a market... Reiser4... If you have the skills to use that fs at yr. own risk, you should know how to apply reiser4 patches...

Thanks guys

Yes I know , but I dont have intend to do something that users dont want to have.

I can realize my or Lovechild's (cause they are the same hehe) ideas in other way

and just dont care if many people will use it.
If one other to me man will use it , will be good

cheers.

@fallow sounds interessting! When can we expect a new project from you? What is the other way to realize your ideas? an different patchset? a new distro? A new OS? :twisted:

hehehe

a new patchset . but not so new .
in the past I was releasing a vivid-sources - > http://sourceforge.net/projects/vivid-sources .
and https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-197069-highlight-vividsources.html
I have plane to reactivate it , but only with one tree.
In the past was been vivid,vivid_e,mm_vivid etc. definitive too much

now will be just vivid

Hello!
I have a problem...
When I try to boot with love i get the following error:

VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem).
Inconsistency detected by ld.so: rtld.c: 1173: dl_main: Assertion '(void *) ph->p_vaddr == _rtld_local._dl_sysinfo_dso' failed!
VFS: Cannot open root device "evms/root" or unknown-block(0,0)
... ....

Can anyone help me???

ps my old kernel works fine...

To get rid of that error try adding vdso=0 to your kernel cmdline.

SOLVED: dumbass me.. i didn't have ATAPI CDROM support in the kernel :oops:

Original problem:
I'm having a problem with the latest love. After I compiled DMA into my kernel (which i forgot before) the /dev/hdc and /dev/hdd device nodes disappeared. To check that it's not a wrong-doing of udev, i checked it with another kernel, and it has hdc and hdd. Now both of those devices show up in dmesg. So why don't they show up in my /dev tree? Any ideas? My dmesg is here:

i just want to say --- please please PLEASE dont let this kernel patchset die.

i get 10000% better interactivity with genetic nicksched / anticipatory than what i do with any other setup i have tested.

i will be so sad

pleassse!!!!!!!
