Hi,
this is my try for implementing the llseek operation on raw devices. The
reason is that lseek does a check on the limits of the undlying
filesystem and thus tends to err where the real device lies. Lseek check
takes the /dev/raw/rawX filesystem as limiting factor, not the device
that is bound to rawX. In my case I'm using a reiserfs (the old one)
with 4G limits and thus can't do an llseek on DVD, resulting in an error
half way through the film.
This lseek was rigged together from the lseek from the memory device and
from limit checkings from the rw_raw_dev function.
I couldn't find any maintainer, so it's going to the list. (Alan, if
you're going to add it to the -ac patches, it's against plain 2.4.3
raw.c. But this patch should apply without problems)
(please watch the on long line below, will most probably get broken in
transit)
