Hey, we switched to the GPL several months ago, but only now do we include the license text itself. Apparently everybody expected everybody else to just know what the GPL was.. Add a README on compiling the kernel (by Lasu) Add PS/2 mouse driver, make generic "mouse" infrastructure. Add /proc filesystem, clean up minixfs block mapping. sys_wait4() and swapoff(). VM gets a "secondary page free" list for things like interrupts that want a page _now_ and can't wait for the regular free list to fill up. [Original announcement below] Patch3 is almost 100kB even compressed, as there were quite big changes in the mm and minix fs. No major new features: there are two new system calls: swapoff(const char * swapfile) and wait4(), and linux accepts several swap-files, but the rest of the thing is mostly bug-fixes or simply rewrites. Major changes: - new swap-page handling: linux no longer uses just one bit to keep track of used swap-space, but a counter for each...
