Summary of major kernel changes between Jaguar and Panther


  • Subject: Summary of major kernel changes between Jaguar and Panther

I am writing in hopes that someone at Apple has a summary of changes in the kernel between 10.2.8 and 10.3 (ie xnu--344.49 and xnu-517). I have the source to both and am digging through the diffs, but I was hoping for a concise primer from those in the know.

As a side note, to get the diffs I first imported xnu-344.49 into my local CVS root, then copied all files from xnu-517 into the working xnu directory and then ran
cvs diff . > diff.out. There is probably a more efficient way to do this, but this is the way I know how to do it.

Anyhow, diff.out contains 182,802 lines, and I've probably missed many lines because of new modules in 10.3, that are not present in 10.2. kernel source.. I haven't dug down that far yet. A summary would be very helpful so that the darwin community can drill down to the important parts.

Thanks in advance
