[PATCH] make more file_operation structs static

2006-07-03T22:26:59+00:00

Mark the static struct file_operations in drivers/char as const. Making them const prevents accidental bugs, and moves them to the .rodata section so that they no longer do any false sharing; in addition with the proper debug option they are then protected against corruption..

[PATCH] fix ia64 compile failure with gcc4.1

2005-12-29T18:19:21+00:00

__get_unaligned creates a typeof the var its passed, and writes to it, which on gcc4.1, spits out the following error: drivers/char/vc_screen.c: In function 'vcs_write': drivers/char/vc_screen.c:422: error: assignment of read-only variable 'val' Signed-off-by: Dave Jones [ The "right" fix would be to try to fix but that's hard to do with the tools gcc gives us. So this simpler patch is preferable -- Linus ] Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

Linux-2.6.12-rc2

2005-04-16T22:20:36+00:00

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
