Yeah it is nice, but it lacks useful (imho) patches and it has dangerous patches (ex. 4k stacks: with 4k stacks users can't run most - all? - drivers with ndiswrapper, because Windows' drivers require stacks larger than 4k).

kamikaze-sources has a broken-out directory, so you can simply revert the 4k-stacks-default.patch...

Yeah... so "Adding patches" + "Removing patches" = "Make another patchset"

Hell, yeah!!
These guys over at gentoo trade patches amongst them so they're basically the same with another scheduler or some patches added/removed...
But... the question was

So, if 4k stacks are dangerous, revert it and use kamikaze-sources
It's how i build my kernel: I use viper-sources, revert suspend2 (cause it - used to? - flood my kernel-log with messages) and compile it as viper-sources... no biggie
I may even throw the 4k-stacks-default back in when i'm gonna recompile it
But enough thread-jacking (sorry guys...)

Well... as I've already said the "4k stacks" patch isn't the only thing I'd change, so: "Adding patches" + "Removing patches" = "Make another patchset" it's not just "-kamikaze w/o 4k stacks"

Have you talked to the guys there yet?
They might have tried some of your proposed patches and ran into trouble...
And they are usually quite open to suggestions... Especially when you volunteer to do some work

I'd add AppArmor and maybe SKAS (nothing of very "critical") + I'd remove a lot of patches.

maybe they're porting those as we speak though i wouldn't get my hopes up to high...
dropping patches sounds like a great plan to me... which would you drop (apart from those already mentioned of course...)?
Ah... i see you just stepped into the lion's den (1st post on gentoo forums )
I'm curious as to what this becomes... If you need testing done, just let me know... I like to break stuff
