[PATCH] AEM v0.5.2, kernel 2.6.0-test9

From: Frederic Rossi
Date: Wed Dec 17 2003 - 15:53:58 EST



AEM (Asynchronous Event Mechanism) is an extension providing a native
support for asynchronous events in the Linux kernel.

Pathes and updates for the v0.5.x are mostly to cleanup, correct and fix
bugs for forked event handlers. Below is a diff for v0.5.1.

Package: mod_aem-2.6
Version: v0.5.2

Modules+patches at:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/aem

Major changes:
* Fix alignment during process frame copy
* Fix the wait for zombies in the capsule manager
* Fix for concurrent event activations occuring
while holding event locks
