How can I keyword gentoo-sources for ~x86? I'd like to test 2.6.16...

edit the ebuild and on the line that starts with "KEYWORDS=" add "~x86" to it.
After that run "ebuild
/usr/portage/sys-kernel/gentoo-sources/gentoo-sources-2.6.16.ebuild digest" and
add sys-kernel/gentoo-sources to your /etc/portage/package.keywords.
After this, just emerge gentoo-sources.

I've done x86.

Tested and marked ~ppc

added ~ppc64

~sparc no go.
It's missing the sparsemem patch from bug #127095 which fixes SMP
UltraSPARC-IIIi systems.
Also it has issues with Blade 1000/2000/280R/other UltraSPARC-III systems which
rely on the qla2xxx driver to boot from builtin disks.

Looks like 2.6.16.1 just came out today: http://kernel.org/

Gustavo: I didn't forget about the sparsemem patch, just this bug was opened
before I was informed. Now that 2.6.16-r1 is out, can this be keyworded? Also,
can I have links to the bug reports or mailing list threads about those storage
regressions?

2.6.16.2 just came out yesterday: http://kernel.org/

Looks like they've gone to 2.6.16.4 now: http://kernel.org

arm: please mark 2.6.16-r3 testing
alpha: please mark 2.6.16-r3 testing

gustavoz: any progress on your sparc issue?

amd64 x86 ia64 ppc ppc64: please mark 2.6.16-r3 stable
you should also deal with bugs 128086 and 126992 at the same time

dsd: the qla22xx driver was heavily touched from 2.6.15.x->2.6.16.x, debugging
that would be a real pain (and i lack the affected hardware to do it myself).
theory says the alternate qlogic fc driver should work, but it's
deprecated/old, thus probably going away soon.

2.6.16-r3 stable on ppc64

i'm now using gentoo-sources-2.6.16-r3 for about 4 hours on x86. My system
seems to run smoothly as usual with nvidia-kernel-1.0.8756,
sys-apps/rlocate-0.5.0-r1 (yes, i know that both packages are in ~x86) and
udev-087. The only thing to notice is, that i saw this message while merging
the package:

x86 stable

IA64 done (2.6.16-r3).

2.6.16-r4 went to ~sparc land - seems some people failed to test it in a proper
fashion.
Basically for FCAL to work on SPARC it needs
CONFIG_SCSI_QLA2XXX_EMBEDDED_FIRMWARE=y and CONFIG_SCSI_QLA22XX=y (joys of
getting my own FCAL machine).

Marked ppc stable.

alpha, arm: ping! please mark 2.6.16-r5 as testing

amd64 x86 ia64 ppc ppc64: please mark 2.6.16-r5 stable, it includes some
important fixes

Marked ppc stable again.

x86 done

stable on ppc64

Any reasons why gentoo-sources-2.6.16 is not stable on AMD64 yet?

Because of some confusion between the amd64 team and myself. It will be done
very soon.

amd64 stable

I also did 2.6.16-r7 on x86.

2.6.17 in the tree, I'll let the remaining people keyword it in their own time.
