2002-05-13Fixed race when devfs lookup()/readdir() triggers partition rescanning.Richard Gooch
2002-05-11misc.c:Richard Gooch
Do not put miscellaneous character devices in /dev/misc if they specify their own directory (i.e. contain a '/' character) util.c: Copied and used macro for error messages from fs/devfs/base.c base.c: Removed 2.4.x compatibility code Added BKL to <devfs_open> because drivers still need it
2002-04-14[PATCH] devfs patch for 2.5.8Richard Gooch
- Updated fs/devfs/util.c to fix shift warning on 64 bit machines Thanks to Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> - Updated README from master HTML file
2002-04-07[PATCH] devfs patch for 2.5.8-pre2Richard Gooch
- Documentation updates - BKL removal (devfs doesn't need the BKL) - Changed <devfs_rmdir> to allow later additions if not yet empty - Added calls to <devfs_register_partitions> in drivers/block/blkpc.c <add_partition> and <del_partition> - Bug fixes in unique number and devnum allocators.
2002-03-14[PATCH] fs/libfs.cAlexander Viro
Linus, I've taken a bunch of common methods into fs/libfs.c and killed the (duplicated) instances in filesystems. There will be more - ideally I'd like to get a library that would make writing small filesystems trivial.
2002-03-10[PATCH] (3/4) ->kill_sb() switchoverAlexander Viro
The rest of nodev filesystems switched.
2002-02-18[PATCH] (2/4) 2.5.5-pre1 fixesAlexander Viro
helper for safe access to parent's inumber
2002-02-14[PATCH] (4/5) more BKL shiftingAlexander Viro
BKL shifted into ->symlink() (+ fixes for {ramfs,shmem}_symlink())
2002-02-14[PATCH] (2/5) more BKL shiftingAlexander Viro
BKL shifted into ->rmdir()
2002-02-14[PATCH] (1/5) more BKL shiftingAlexander Viro
BKL shifted into ->mkdir()
2002-02-12[PATCH] BKL shifted inside ->unlink()Alexander Viro
Next one in the series - this time it's ->unlink()...
2002-02-12[PATCH] BKL shifted into ->mknod()Alexander Viro
2002-02-11[PATCH] BKL shifted into ->lookup()Alexander Viro
OK, here comes: ->lookup() had lost BKL, all in-tree instances of ->lookup() converted. I'm adding Documentation/filesystems/porting - with the list of API changes since 2.4. Are you OK with that format? (and yes, this sucker is *post*-compile ;-)
2002-02-08[PATCH] includes cleanup, 2nd try.Dave Jones
Big bits first, I'll redo the smaller bits tomorrow after some sleep. Same as last time, rediffed against pre5
2002-02-06[PATCH] (5/6) more ->get_sb() stuffAlexander Viro
