Re: Delivery Status Notification (Failure)
Does anybody have some work in the scheduler subsystem I can work on that is a good top dipping for a kernel newbie. Regards Nick

There is zero code in the scheduler that somebody of your demonstrated competence will be able to successfully modify. For that matter, there is zero code in most of the rest of the kernel that you're in any position to patch. Do yourself and the world a favor - make a resolution to *NOT* attempt a patch of anything in the calendar year 2014, and spend the time learning.

I think you should start with learning the schedular and it code....may be you can find something...

One shouldn't judge a book by its cover....This is a newbie list, If all people here are already competent enough to post high-end patches(though patching a kernel might not be a very huge thing in this world, given that there are more complex things in this world) ..then there would be not need of a newbie list.

Its always a good idea to keep learning and keep others motivated to learn... :)

Priyaranjan, With that analogy, Nick's book is a big hit in lkml! :) Nobody wants to read it! lol Nick, No offence meant!

-- Thanks and Regards Pramod No I don't take any offense, I am very rusty with kernel code haven't touched it in like 2 years. If you want to me to learn through just answer my questions and I will learn. Regards Nick
