List of projects, ideas and pending bug fixes
|
|
===============================================
|
|
|
|
o Use devfs auto device allocation to get devices rather than a fixed
|
|
series of devices (which limits us to 256 volumes atm)
|
|
|
|
- Ought to have an option of using the old version for non-devfs systems
|
|
- Would be nice if the auto device allocation was independant of devfs
|
|
|
|
o Need to work out how to make module use counts work correctly. The existing
|
|
scheme does not allow us to unload the module. A reference is taken during
|
|
kern_mount() which does not allow us to rmmod() so even if the right
|
|
umount() functions were exported (which they aren't) we'd never get to
|
|
call them anyway. This could be tricky.
|
|
|
|
o Check tables are an integer multiple of the underlying block size at
|
|
table load time.
|
|
|
|
o Use Al Viro's new code for "proc files consisting of one line per entry"
|
|
for the error and status files. [This item waiting for the patches to
|
|
reach the kernel and for their suitability to be further investigated
|
|
and checked]
|
|
|
|
o Error code (as well as error list) so that "out of memory" errors can
|
|
result in messages which can be read from the error file.
|
|
|
|
o Further reduction of common code between the filesystem source files.
|
|
|
|
[For 2.4.14-pre and upwards]
|
|
|
|
o Use fail_writepage() in address_space_operations
|
|
o Kernel takes care of module reference count for block devices, so all we
|
|
need to do is add an owner field in the right place.
