    [PATCH] Linux-0.99.10 (June 7, 1993) · 9cb9f18b
    Linus Torvalds authored
    People finally gave up on net-1, Ross Biro grew tired of the flames, and
    net-2 appears with Fred van Kempen as maintainer.  This is the big
    switch-over version.
    
    fsync() isn't just a stub any more, and System V IPC is also showing up.
    
    The "struct file" filetable is made dynamic, instaed of a static
    allocation.  For the first time you can have _lots_ of files open.
    
    Stub for iBCS2 emulation code.

    I've finally released an official version of linux-0.99 patchlevel 10:
    there have been various alpha versions floating around which differ in
    details (notably networking code), which shouldn't be used any more.
    The new linux version is available only as full source code: the diffs
    would have been too big to be useful.  You can find linux-0.99.10.tar.z
    (along with keytables.tar.z) on nic.funet.fi: pub/OS/Linux/PEOPLE/Linus
    and probably on tsx-11 and other linux archives within a day or two (so
    check there first if you are in the states).
