  • cdb32706f   plip: fix parport_register_device name parameter ... Browse Code »

    Plip passes a string "name" that is allocated on stack to
    parport_register_device. parport_register_device holds the pointer to
    "name" and when the registering function exits, it points nowhere.

    On some machine, this bug causes bad names to appear in /proc, such as
    /proc/sys/dev/parport/parport0/devices/T^/�X^/�, on others, the plip
    proc node is completely missing.

    The patch also fixes documentation to note this requirement.

  • 25398a158   sysctl: parport remove binary paths ... Browse Code »

    The sysctl binary paths don't look as if they even code work, .data is not
    filled in, and all of the proc_handlers look at extra1 and there is not
    strategy routine.

    So just kill the binary paths.

    In addition this patch removes the setting of extra1 on directories. It
    doesn't look like the parport code ever examines it, and it's bad sysctl form.

    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!
