[PATCH] FAT: DIO-write fallback to normal buffered

2007-02-21T01:10:14+00:00

If the DIO write on FAT is expanding the size, it will be fail by -EINVAL,
because FAT can't handle it now.

This patch fallback it to the normal buffered-write and would return
success.

[PATCH] mark struct inode_operations const 1

2007-02-12T17:48:46+00:00

Many struct inode_operations in the kernel can be "const".  Marking them const
moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential
dirty data.  In addition it'll catch accidental writes at compile time to
these shared resources.

[PATCH] slab: remove kmem_cache_t

2006-12-07T16:39:25+00:00

Replace all uses of kmem_cache_t with struct kmem_cache.

The patch was generated using the following script:

	#!/bin/sh
	#
	# Replace one string by another in all the kernel sources.
	#

	set -e

	for file in `find * -name "*.c" -o -name "*.h"|xargs grep -l $1`; do
		quilt add $file
		sed -e "1,\$s/$1/$2/g" $file >/tmp/$$
		mv /tmp/$$ $file
		quilt refresh
	done

The script was run like this

	sh replace kmem_cache_t "struct kmem_cache"

[PATCH] separate bdi congestion functions from queue congestion functions

2006-10-20T17:26:35+00:00

Separate out the concept of "queue congestion" from "backing-dev congestion".
Congestion is a backing-dev concept, not a queue concept.

The blk_* congestion functions are retained, as wrappers around the core
backing-dev congestion functions.

This proper layering is needed so that NFS can cleanly use the congestion
functions, and so that CONFIG_BLOCK=n actually links.
