During the time you were working on this, we switched the default linux_base from the obsolete linux_base-8 to linux_base-fc4. It took extra time due to the fact that we needed to run a regression test with this change, all across an entire ports tree. As to the kernel bugs, I really can't comment. But if you don't get feedback from this forum, you may need to submit PRs (my preference would be individual ones for the individual fixes, so they can be discussed separately, but no matter), with Synopsis lines something on the order of "[linux] fix kernel Linux emulation to fix off-by-one-error" or something similar. Again, I am not in a position to review the kernel changes, but I'd certainly like to see Oracle running on FreeBSD, as a competive thing if nothing else. mcl
