      [PATCH] osst update · f85fae3f
      Douglas Gilbert authored
      This is the OnStream variant of the st driver that
      has been in Dave's tree for some time.
      
      The change looks like it is from Willem Riede (osst@riede.org)
      and that it has been forwarded ported from lk 2.4 .

      [PATCH] aha1542 update · c99b1407
      Douglas Gilbert authored
      This ISA scsi adapter still seems to be popular
      given the number of people that supply patches
      for it collected in Dave's tree.
      
      The latest patch was from William Stinson (first item):
        - request_region cleanup
        - removal of old scsi error handling (leaving newer version)
        - scatterlist::address replaced
        - host_lock replacing io_request_lock
      
      
      Doug Gilbert
      
      P.S. This is a transfer from Dave's tree. It runs fine for
      me on a dual Celeron SMP box.

      [PATCH] PNPBIOS / floppy conflict. · d56fe0f6
      Dave Jones authored
      The PNPBIOS driver and the floppy driver both fight over reservation
      of the floppy port. This patch makes things friendly again.
      As the comment suggests, this fix could be done better, but until
      someone steps forward to fix this, this is the best we have.

      Dave Jones authored
      This patch from 2.4 makes sure we don't prefetch past the
      end of a range to be copied (in case its at the end of a memrange)
      i386 case looks safe already, we just weren't optimal for the last
      chunk to be copied.
      
      Andi. same change needed for x86-64.

         please if you would like to have some other methods virtualized in a similar
         way - just tell me or even better do it yourself at the end of ide-dma.c.
         I *don't mind* patches.
      
       - Fix the pmac code to adhere to the new API. It's supposed to work again.
         However this is blind coding... I give myself 80% chances for it to work ;-).

      Nuke /proc/ide. For explanations why, please see the frustrated comments in the

      well please just take a look at the following:
      
      Kernel size before:
      
          text    data     bss     dec     hex filename

      [PATCH] 2.5.14 IDE 56 · 470d15bb
      Martin Dalecki authored
       - Push poll_timeout down from the hwgroup to the channel. We are resetting the
         channel and not a whole hwgroup. This way using multiple pdc202xxx cards
         should magically start to work with multiple performance and resets will no
         longer lock the system.
      
       - Updates for PDC4030 by Peter Denison <peterd@marshadder.uklinux.net>.
      
       - Make ide_raw_taskfile don't care about request buffers. They where always
         NULL.
      
       - Port set multi mode count over from the special setting interface to
         ide_raw_taskfile. Fix errors in the corresponding interrupt handler in one go
         as well. It turned out that this is precisely the same code as in
         task_no_data_intr, so we can nuke it altogether. And finally we have found
         some problems with the set_pio_mode() command which can fail with -EBUSY -
         this is in esp. probably *very* common during boot hdparm usage those days!
         (OK it was masked by reportig too early that it finished...  Crap Crap utter
         crap it was!!!) Right now hdparm should just be extendid to properly
         sync and retry on   -EBUSY and everything should be fine.
      
         And now the 1 Milion EUR question for everybody who loves to put driver
         settings in to /proc:
      
         How the hell could echo > /proc/ide/ide0/settings blah blah blah blah handle
         properly cases like -EIO, -EBUSY and so on??? Having the possibility o do it
         does not mean that it is a good idea to use it.
      
         OK. After realizing the simple fact that quite a lot of low level hardware
         manipulating ioctls may require assistance in usage from proper logic which is
         *very* unlikely to be implemented in a bash (for me preferable still ksh) I
         have made my mind up.
      
      	/proc/ide will be nuked.
      
       - Execute the recalibration for error recovery on precisely the same request as
         the one which failed.
      
       - Remove set geometry.  It's crap by means of standard specification. Because:
      
         1. We rely on the existence of the identify command anyway.
      
         2. This command was obsoleted *before* the identify command existed as far
         as I can see.
      
         2. I'm able to have a look at what other ATA/ATAPI drivers in the wild do:
         They don't do it.
      
       - Just call tuneproc in set_pio_mode() directly - we are already behind the rq
         queue there.
      
       - After we have uncovered the broken logics behind the whole ioctl handling we
         now just have made ide_spin_wait_hwgroup() waiting for a proper somehow
         longer timeout before giving up. This was previously just hiding the broken
         concept of setting ioctl values through /proc/ide/ideX/settings - now it just
         really helps hdparm to not to give up too early. (It shouldn't probably play
         wreck havock on the global driver spin lock as well. I will look in to this
         later.)
      
       - Scrap the non necessary, to say the least, disabling of interrupts for 3,
         read it again please, 3 seconds, on the local CPU inside
         ide_spin_wait_hwgroup().  Spin lock handling needs checking there badly as I
         see now as well...
      
      Hey apparently any "special" requests are gone. We now have only
      to deal with REQ_DEVICE_ACB and REQ_DEVICE_CMD. One of them is still too
      much and will be killed.

      [PATCH] PATCH - kNFSd/FAT in 2.5.14 - Add export_operations support for FAT · 537ad07f
      Neil Brown authored
      This actually contains a lot of code that is never used,
      as we don't currently attempt to load an inode that isn't
      in cache, so the fat_get_parent is never actually reached.
      However it is there (and should be right) incase some brave
      soul does decide to enhance fat_get_dentry accordingly.

      [PATCH] PATHC - kNFSd/reiserfs in 2.5.14 - Convert reisferfs to use export_operations · 6f9a2db9
      Neil Brown authored
      This patch converts reiserfs to use the new export_operations
      interface for exporting a filesystem instead of the old
      fh_to_dentry and dentry_to_fh.
      Essentially it:
      
        - renamed reiserfs_dentry_to_fh to reiserfs_encode_fh
        - split reiserfs_fh_to_dentry into reiserfs_get_dentry
          and reiserfs_decode_fh
        - calls d_splice_alias from reiserfs_lookup so that building
          a dcache path from the bottom works well
        - addes reiserfs_get_parent to do a lookup of ".." without going
          through the VFS interfaces.
        - sets sb->s_export_op to be an appropriately initialised
          struct export_operations
      
      This has been tested and works.

      [PATCH] PATCH - kNFSd/ext3 in 2.5.14 - export_operations support for ext3 · 35116208
      Neil Brown authored
      This patch converts ext3 to use the new export_operations for
      exporting a filesystem.
      In particular it
       - defines "ext3_get_parent" to do a lookup(".."),
       - calls d_splice_alias when ext3_lookup finds something,
         so that build a dcache path from the bottom up works, and
       - sets sb->s_export_op to point to an (almost empty)
         export_operations structure.  The fact that it is mostly empty
         means that the default lookup operations are used, which match the
         previous approach (i.e. use iget, and then check the generation
         number).
