linux-toradex.git/drivers/char/mspec.c, branch v2.6.22.15 Linux kernel for Apalis and Colibri modules [PATCH] mark struct file_operations const 3 2007-02-12T17:48:45+00:00 Arjan van de Ven arjan@linux.intel.com 2007-02-12T08:55:32+00:00 2b8693c0617e972fc0b2fd1ebf8de97e15b656c3 Many struct file_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] mspec driver build fix 2006-11-13T15:40:42+00:00 Jes Sorensen jes@sgi.com 2006-11-10T20:27:49+00:00 1a4b0fc503ff4149f5915be4aeb179b9453cf485 Fix MSPEC driver to build for non SN2 enabled configs as the driver should work in cached and uncached modes (no fetchop) on these systems. In addition make MSPEC select IA64_UNCACHED_ALLOCATOR, which is required for it and move it to arch/ia64/Kconfig to avoid warnings on non ia64 architectures running allmodconfig. Once the Kconfig code is fixed, we can move it back.
