Fala ai Pessoal,
(Sorry not in english...)
Não sei se vcs estão acompanhando, na lista PM, mas caso não estejam, precisei postar isso para vcs se divertirem também ;-)
Linus Torvalds, insatisfeito com a impossibilidade de gerar saidas (traces) durante as últimas fases de suspend/resume e também pelo fato que sempre que testa STD ou STR (suspend to Disk ou RAM) em uma nova máquina eventualmente tem problemas, está intensamente ativo numa thread na lista PM copiando David Brownell e Pavel Machek.
Na maior parte da thread ele discute com Benjamim Harrenschimidt, que não conheço bem.
Eles ficam discutindo alguns pontos das rotinas suspend/resume e as pessoas não concordam muito com ele e ficam apenas respondendo inflando a discussão até um momento que o Linus decide partir para o Just-do-it e ELE mesmo cria um patch (24/06/2006) para começar a resolver o problema (que existe de fato), um tanto quanto decepcionado com os responsáveis por esta parte do driver core.
O mais engraçado é que após ele enviar o patch e após pouquíssimas modificações ele diz que já vai incluir no main-line se ninguém disser que DESTESTOU o patch. Esse patch não quebra a sequência de resume/suspend dos drivers mas estes podem se aprimorar com a nova sequência de funções, sendo um dos objetivos originar um suporte para se ter console por mais tempo permitindo melhor debug destes momentos difíceis do kernel além de uma estrutura um pouco mais consistente para STR/STD.

E assim evolui o Linux...

After a Long Winter...
a post.
Greetings!
Very busy, challenging and disruptive period.
In the last three months I can say that life has turned up-side-down.
First act was the moving from Manaus back to São Paulo, after 5 years of Amazon and Informacts law experience. Very happy and meaningfull time, specially in the professional arena.
But time has come and a return to the home town turned out to be necessary for familiar reasons.
The new work in a company that develops and sells tracking systems for trucks and general transportation is pretty different and challenging as always is to enter new paths.
The first weeks here was passed at parents house while my wife and daughter kept going from São Paulo to Santa Cruz do Rio Pardo, the hometown of my wife, located about 350 Km from SP.
The Second act was the new apartment, at the Belem subdistrict of São Paulo. Pretty good, near the subway, very good state - it has been refurbished few time before we entered there. Its organization has been taking most of my time while not at work. More 2 weeks at most and I will be completely pleased with it ;-) .
The third act was the birth if my second daughter, Clara, at 8 of June. A single beauty! Photos soon.
Now the three women are in the countryside, where they have very good medical assistence - that kind of familiar doctor/medicines, very confortable to them - and to me either: whether by the security that they are felling or the idle time to clean up the apartment. They might be coming to SP in about 2 weeks and everything will be ready for them.
My plans are to resume some open source activities soon. But I don´t know when yet. Maybe look for something with emulators, mainly qemu since I don´t have access to any board now.
Cheers,
Daniel
