2008-10-12V4L/DVB (8807): Add DVB support for the Leadtek Winfast PxDVR3200 HSteven Toth1-0/+1
This patch is on behalf of Stephen Backway <stev391@email.com>, and represents two patches I received (and some subsequent whitespace cleanup I had due to how I pulled the patches). From the original author: a) Add DVB support for the Leadtek Winfast PxDVR3200 H. b) The tuner callback previously checked the command 3 times: 1) To see if it was the XC2028_RESET_CLK 2) To see if it was not the XC2028_RESET_TUNER 3) To see if it was the XC2028_RESET_TUNER This patch removes the third check.

2008-10-09vfs: vfs-level fiemap interfaceMark Fasheh1-0/+228
Basic vfs-level fiemap infrastructure, which sets up a new ->fiemap inode operation. Userspace can get extent information on a file via fiemap ioctl. As input, the fiemap ioctl takes a struct fiemap which includes an array of struct fiemap_extent (fm_extents). Size of the extent array is passed as fm_extent_count and number of extents returned will be written into fm_mapped_extents. Offset and length fields on the fiemap structure (fm_start, fm_length) describe a logical range which will be searched for extents. All extents returned will at least partially contain this range. The actual extent offsets and ranges returned will be unmodified from their offset and range on-disk. The fiemap ioctl returns '0' on success. On error, -1 is returned and errno is set. If errno is equal to EBADR, then fm_flags will contain those flags which were passed in which the kernel did not understand. On all other errors, the contents of fm_extents is undefined. As fiemap evolved, there have been many authors of the vfs patch.

2008-10-10ext4: Use readahead when reading an inode from the inode tableTheodore Ts'o2-0/+9
With modern hard drives, reading 64k takes roughly the same time as reading a 4k block. So request readahead for adjacent inode table blocks to reduce the time it takes when iterating over directories (especially when doing this in htree sort order) in a cold cache case. With this patch, the time it takes to run "git status" on a kernel tree after flushing the caches via "echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches" is reduced by 21%.
