Define container_of which cast from member to struct with some type checking.
This is much like list_entry but is cearly for things other than lists.
List_entry now uses container_of.
|
|
* ->i_dev followed the example of ->s_dev - it's dev_t now. All
remaining uses of ->i_dev either outright want dev_t (stat()) or couldn't
care less (printing major:minor in /proc/<pid>/maps, etc.)

This patch removes the concept of "logical" CPU numbers, in
preparation for CPU hotplugging.

The always-appreciated Stanford Checker found a memory leak in
net/socket.c :: sock_fasync. It was a bit tricky since the memory was
only conditionally allocated, so must only conditionally be freed.

|
FS_NOMOUNT is gone, initialization for pseudo-filesystems
(bdev, pipe, sock) switched to use of a common helper.
|
|
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.
|
|
The rest of nodev filesystems switched.
|
|
* move socket clearing code from sock_alloc to sock_alloc_inode, so
root of socketfs does not contain garbage, and we have all initialization
in one place
* add initialization of passcred to zero - otherwise it is left on some
random value, causing at least autobind() to randomly fail on
unix sockets

You are right, it did. I removed all the sched.h dependencies and this
reduced the size of the patch greatly. I now use current_thread_info()
and none of the header or include hackery from before. I've tested this
with and without preemption enabled with success.
I appreciate your help with this.
Again, this is a minimal i386-only patch. I have other arches,
documentation, etc. Patch against 2.5.4-pre5. Enjoy,

More ->get_sb() patches: sockfs

This is the second patch of three implementing further llseek cleanups,
against 2.5.4-pre1. It does not depend on the other patches.
This patch cleans up various code and quite nicely removes much more
code than it adds. Specifically:
- remove static lseek method which merely reimplements
the standard no_llseek in the following seven files:
hci_vhci.c, ite8172.c, nec_vrc5477.c, auerswald.c,
pipe.c, netlink_dev.c, and socket.c
- remove fs/ufs/file.c::ufs_file_lseek -- Al says it is
reimplementing generic_file_llseek, so let's use that
instead (the comment about 32-bit sizes shouldn't be
an issue, the generic method checks size)
- include smp_lock.h in 3 files missed from previous
'remove bkl' patch
- Documentation/filesystem/Locking update
Please, apply.
