Hi, all. Version 181 of my devfs patch is now available from:
http://www.atnf.csiro.au/~rgooch/linux/kernel-patches.html
The devfs FAQ is also available here.
Patch directly available from:

AND:
I'd like to monitor CPU, memory, and I/O utilization in a
long-running multithreaded daemon under kernels 2.2, 2.4,
and possibly also Solaris (#ifdefs are ok).
getrusage() looked promising, and might even work for CPU utilization.

Here is a small patch for the adjtime behavour (strictly adjtimex when
called with ADJ_OFFSET_SINGLESHOT) to make it work more like the
adjtime found in *BSD based kernels where large deltas are allowed to
slew at a greater rate.
In the current Linux code (in 2.2 and 2.4) the slew rate is

Hi,
by default the limit for max_threads is such that
the system will try to allocate up to half the
physical memory in task_structs.
Because for each 8kB task struct we'll often want
a struct_mm, a page directory, 3 page tables and
some more structures, this means that a fork bomb
will leave
Currently getdents64() returns d_off values that have been truncated
to 32 bits and then sign extended for all but the last directory entry
it returns. This is because the filldir functions have been typedef'd
and declared as taking an 'off_t offset' instead of a 'loff_t offset'.

Probably what happens is that your BIOS stores some data in the top
megabyte of RAM, but doesn't set up the memory map to reflect this.
Therefore, Linux overwrites whatevers up there, causing problems.

I'm using kernel 2.2.16-22 w/ RedHat 7.0 w/ cdrecord 1.9. I have a P133 w/
64M RAM w/ a Smart & Friendly 2006 Plus SCSI CD-R. It burns data discs
without problem but when I try to burn an audio disc Linux comes to a
complete halt. I can't get any console or network response and no error

Hi,
Sorry to disturb you all.
In the d_alloc() function in the vfs layer of the filesystem(2.2.14
kernel) we can see the following:
dentry-d_mounts = dentry;
dentry-d_covers = dentry;
Why should both the above be assigned the values of dentry. Wher elase is
this used.
Hi,
Every file system has a magic number. Can you please tell me what for this
magic number is used. When do we really use this unique magic number of
the file system and why?
Thanks in advance.
With Regards,

Hi,
Every file system has file_system_type structure defined. Where else this
structure is referred. Does register_filesystem() refer this structure.
Does sys_mount refer to this structure by any means?
Please help me with the info.

I've recently been getting strange system lock-ups - often my system
just dies, but occasionally I get messages in dmesg. I've tried to
isolate the problem by increasing the available swap (I now have 2x
RAM), removing my reiserfs partitions (I'm now running with ext2) and
downgrading from

Hi folks!
It seems, that 2.4.5 is supposed to support K7 Machine Check Exception
in arch/i386/kernel/bluesmoke.c. However mcheck_init() is called from
init_intel() in arch/i386/kernel/setup.c only. Therefore it is never
invoked from init_amd() - so not enabled.
I tried following patch:
---
Kernel 2.4.5 has a working emu10k1 driver (all apps which hung with
2.2.19's driver worked fine, none of the working ones stopped working).
Could we perhaps see this backported to the 2.2.20 prepatches so that us 2.2
lovers can enjoy working sound?
