| |
Hi, all. Version 99.21 of my devfs patch is now available from: http://www.atnf.csiro.au/~rgooch/linux/kernel-patches.html The devfs FAQ is also available here.
Patch directly available from: ftp://ftp.??.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/rgooch/v2.2/devfs-patch-current.gz
AND: ftp://ftp.atnf.csiro.au/pub/people/rgooch/linux/kernel-patches/v2.2/devfs-patch-current.gz
WARNING: you will need devfsd-v1.3.19 or later.
NOTE: the devfs-patch-v99.x patches are maintenance patches for the old 2.2.x production kernels. Occasionally, features from a modern kernel are back-ported, but this happens rarely.
This is against 2.2.20. Highlights of this release:
- Ported devfs-patch-v99.20 to kernel 2.2.20
- Updated README from master HTML file
- Added DEVFSD_NOTIFY_DELETE event
- Removed unused DEVFS_FL_SHOW_UNREG flag
- Send DEVFSD_NOTIFY_REGISTERED events in <devfs_mk_dir>
- Do not send CREATE, CHANGE, ASYNC_OPEN or DELETE events from devfsd or children
- Switched to process group check for devfsd privileges
- Fixed drivers/scsi/osst.c to account for <devfs_register> change
- Remove /dev/ide when IDE module unloaded
- Made drivers/block/cpqarray.c devfs-friendly
- Made drivers/block/cciss.c devfs-friendly
