  • This patch add an anonymous inode source, to be used for files that need
    and inode only in order to create a file*. We do not care of having an
    inode for each file, and we do not even care of having different names in
    the associated dentries (dentry names will be same for classes of file*).
    This allow code reuse, and will be used by epoll, signalfd and timerfd
    (and whatever else there'll be).

  • This morning I needed to read a Minix V3 filesystem, but unfortunately my
    2.6.19 did not support that, and neither did the downloaded 2.6.20rc4.

    Fortunately, google told me that Daniel Aragones had already done the work,
    patch found at http://www.terra.es/personal2/danarag/

    Unfortunaly, looking at the patch was painful to my eyes, so I polished it
    a bit before applying. The resulting kernel boots, and reads the
    filesystem it needed to read.

  • Jeffrey Altman, one of the gatekeepers of OpenAFS (the open source project
    which inherited the Transarc/IBM AFS codebase) has requested that the magic
    number 0x5346414F (little endian 'OAFS') be allocated for the f_type field
    of the fsinfo structure on Linux:

    https://lists.openafs.org/pipermail/openafs-info/2006-December/024829.html

    Add it to include/linux/magic.h, mostly as a way of publishing this number
    and ensuring that no other filesystem accidentally uses it.
