--- Comment #43 from Elmar Stellnberger <estellnb at elstel.org> ---
  Normally you have one, two or in rare cases three attempts to fix and then it
needs to work (at last that was the way it was for me when hacking the Modula-3
compiler). I know it was different when I did my last kernel patch
(https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=19231) but that was apparently a
result of my poor possibilities to analyse the C code statically (f.i. jump the
line of execution between modules) and scarce debugging features. I did not
have anything like gdb either for the M3-compiler but it was easy to find out
how the code would execute (probably a feature of that programming language as
I just had a plain text editor). Nonetheless for the radeon and drm modules I
still had no idea how the flow of execution would proceed through it, not even
at the end when I came up with a perfectly working patch.
  Any comments on these issues will be highly appreciated by me, Ingvar (you
can email me outside this thread, of course).
