fat: gcc 4.3 warning fix

2007-07-16T16:05:42+00:00

This patch fixes the following warnings.

fs/fat/dir.c: In function 'fat_parse_long':
include/linux/msdos_fs.h:294: warning: array subscript is above array bounds
include/linux/msdos_fs.h:295: warning: array subscript is above array bounds
include/linux/msdos_fs.h:295: warning: array subscript is above array bounds

The ->name is defined as "name[8], ext[3]", but fat_checksum() uses
those as name[11]. There is no actual problem, but it's not a good manner.

fat: don't use free_clusters for fat32

2007-05-08T18:15:13+00:00

It seems that the recent Windows changed specification, and it's
undocumented.  Windows doesn't update ->free_clusters correctly.

This patch doesn't use ->free_clusters by default.  (instead, add "usefree"
for forcing to use it)

[PATCH] mark struct inode_operations const 3

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] fat: add fat_getattr()

2006-11-16T19:43:38+00:00

This adds fat_getattr() for setting stat->blksize. (FAT uses the size
of cluster for proper I/O)

[PATCH] add -o flush for fat

2006-09-29T16:18:12+00:00

Fat is commonly used on removable media.  Mounting with -o flush tells the
FS to write things to disk as quickly as possible.  It is like -o sync, but
much faster (and not as safe).

[PATCH] Make most file operations structs in fs/ const

2006-03-28T17:16:06+00:00

This is a conversion to make the various file_operations structs in fs/
const.  Basically a regexp job, with a few manual fixups

The goal is both to increase correctness (harder to accidentally write to
shared datastructures) and reducing the false sharing of cachelines with
things that get dirty in .data (while .rodata is nicely read only and thus
cache clean)

[PATCH] fat_lock is used as a mutex, convert it to using the new mutex primitive

2006-03-23T15:38:15+00:00

The fat code uses the fat_lock always in a mutex way (taking and releasing
the lock in the same function), the patch below converts it into the new
mutex primitive.  Please consider this patch for the code.
