Or as "x * 10". Which has the advantage of actually being readable, and

Hi Ingo,
the attached patch (against 2.4.0-test12-pre3) should fix the
problem where generic_file_write() causes a page to be moved
to the inactive list when the program is still writing to it.
Does this patch fix the web benching bottleneck in tux2 ? ;)

I'd like to play with you patch, but certainly from a first glance, it would

Ok guys, I think I've taken Linus' suggestion to have buffer.c use its
own writepage a bit too far. This patch marks pages dirty when the
buffer head is marked dirty, and changes flush_dirty_buffers and
sync_buffers to use writepage instead of ll_rw_block. The idea is
to allow filesystems t
Here is my /etc/exports
/ ccs2(rw,no_root_squash)
/usr ccs2(rw,no_root_squash)
/usr/src ccs2(rw,no_root_squash)
/home ccs2(rw,no_root_squash)
/hard1 ccs2(rw,no_root_squash)
/hard2 ccs2(rw,no_root_squash)
/hard3 ccs2(rw,no_root_squash)
/hard4 ccs2(rw,no_root_squash)
/usr/bbs ccs2(rw,no_root_squash
The file corruption I reported on Dec 6 is still there in test13-pre3.
(I can only reproduce it easily with the ext2 online resizing patches,
but I really don't think it is caused by them)
The corruption happens if invalidate_buffers calls put_last_free() on
buffers that belong to mapped pages. T

I thought the 2.2.18 vm would be better :-)... nver have seen so much

at first the system froze for several seconds. an emer sync worked just
fine so I waited..

Or look at
Excuse my ignorance, but what is cipe?
Also, I received a comment that all I had to do was enable gre
tunneling, is this correct?
Thanks.

Hi Alan,
thanks for merging the osst driver (a driver which support the OnStream
SC-x0, DI-x0 and USB30 tape drives) into the 2.2.19pre1 kernel.
I'd like to ask you to apply the attached patch on top of it, upgrading
the driver version from 0.8.5 to 0.8.6.1.
Changes:

I have been running with the 2 onboard VIA ide hd
controllers (ide 0 and ide 1) along with a creative labs ide contoller on a SB32
soundcard (ide 3). This has had the cdrom and zip drive.
I just added a Promise Ultra100 and it has assumed
the role of ide 3 and ide 4. The onboard controllers

This looks bogus.
You can't test "bh->b_next!=0", because that is entirely meaningless.
b_next can be NULL either because the buffer isn't hashed, or because the

It may be - I just did what Al told me without really understanding it ;-)
The test I did initially was the following:
if(!atomic_read(&bh->b_count) &&
(destroy_dirty_buffers || !buffer_dirty(bh))
