Update: totally ignore this patch. Even using git-apply something gets
confused and git loses the meaning of the renames, turning them into
file additions and deletions.

A better version will no doubt come along. In the mean time, it looks
like I need to improve my git-foo skills...

Satyam: Sorry about this, I wrote this before the conversation on this
point started, expecting the discussion to happen here. My hope was to
see if this minimal change to export PRESET_DICT was acceptable (if not
ideal). Given that practically all of the implementation details are
currently exported, it's probably an improvement to only export one :)

Andrew: The main reason for this change is to allow a private header to
be moved from include/linux/ to this private folder. It's already been
used apparently inappropriately by JFFS2 compression code. Minimal code
changes, lots of file moving (as I'm sure you can see)...

I managed to get the patch to apply to a fresh tree using 'git apply',
which may well mean that I didn't understand your comment that "the
parts which move files around were communicated via git metadata, not
diffs".

Given that, since I wrote this patch, no-one has actually said anything
positive about it, there's probably not much point picking it up until
people have worked out exactly what to do with JFFS2's inappropriate use
of the public-private zutil.h header. At least it's just JFFS2 :)

Thanks, I should have CCed the authors/maintainers originally.

(PS: The stern warning is also present in the other private zlib header
files.)

You could remove the (now pointless) /* WARNING: ... */ comment
from (the now truly private) zutil.h too ...


In addition, the PRESET_DICT definition from zutil.h, used by
fs/jffs2/compr_zlib.c is moved to the 'true' public zlib
header include/linux/zlib.h.


Ugh, I wish you had held on from this patch till the original thread
discussing this reached some conclusion ... from Mark's response
there it does seem PRESET_DICT is clearly an implementation
(and not interface) detail -- which means to me that it must continue
to live in zutil.h (the private header) ... but then, this change is
clearly not so critical either, so it doesn't matter much, I guess.

umm, OK, if you say so.  I'm not sure I understand the point behind
all this, but I'm sure there is one ;)

Lots of git goodies there - I didn't actually receive the patch: the parts
which move files around were communicated via git metadata, not diffs.
Presumably there's a way to tell git to not do that.

But probably it's best that this change be merged via git anyway.  David,
are you interested in handling it?

[-mm] Move zlib compression library to common directory [TAKE TWO]

2007-05-29 Thread Michael-Luke Jones

This patch moves the zlib compression and decompression code
to a common directory. The zutil.h header, which is not meant
to be public, is moved from include/linux/ to lib/zlib/.

In addition, the PRESET_DICT definition from zutil.h, used by
fs/jffs2/compr_zlib.c is moved to the 'true' public zlib
header include/linux/zlib.h.

Conditional compile of only inflate or deflate code is
preserved by this patch. With a bit of luck, this version
won't be whitespace-damaged. Grumble.
