scripts/spelling.txt: add "overide" pattern and fix typo instances

2017-03-10T01:01:09Z

Fix typos and add the following to the scripts/spelling.txt: overide||override While we are here, fix the doubled "address" in the touched line Documentation/devicetree/bindings/regulator/ti-abb-regulator.txt. Also, fix the comment block style in the touched hunks in drivers/media/dvb-frontends/drx39xyj/drx_driver.h.

cdrom: Make device operations read-only

2017-02-14T15:29:56Z

Since function tables are a common target for attackers, it's best to keep them in read-only memory. As such, this makes the CDROM device ops tables const. This drops additionally n_minors, since it isn't used meaningfully, and sets the only user of cdrom_dummy_generic_packet explicitly so the variables can all be const. Inspired by similar changes in grsecurity/PaX. Signed-off-by: Kees Cook Acked-by: David S. Miller Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

Replace with globally

2016-12-24T19:46:01Z

This was entirely automated, using the script by Al: PATT='^[[:blank:]]*#[[:blank:]]*include[[:blank:]]*' sed -i -e "s!$PATT!#include !" \ $(git grep -l "$PATT"|grep -v ^include/linux/uaccess.h) to do the replacement at the end of the merge window.

block: remove struct request buffer member

2014-04-15T20:03:02Z

This was used in the olden days, back when onions were proper yellow. Basically it mapped to the current buffer to be transferred. With highmem being added more than a decade ago, most drivers map pages out of a bio, and rq->buffer isn't pointing at anything valid. Convert old style drivers to just use bio_data(). For the discard payload use case, just reference the page in the bio. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

block_device_operations->release() should return void

2013-05-07T06:16:21Z

The value passed is 0 in all but "it can never happen" cases (and those only in a couple of drivers) *and* it would've been lost on the way out anyway, even if something tried to pass something meaningful. Just don't bother. Signed-off-by: Al Viro

paride/pcd: fix bool verbose module parameter.

2012-01-12T23:02:26Z

Dan Carpenter points out that it's an int, not a bool: pcd.c:427: if (verbose > 1) pcd.c:433: if (verbose > 1) pcd.c:437: if (verbose < 2) pcd.c:506:#define DBMSG(msg) ((verbose>1)?(msg):NULL) Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell Cc: Dan Carpenter

block: fix mismerge of the DISK_EVENT_MEDIA_CHANGE removal

2011-06-01T20:29:19Z

Jens' back-merge commit 698567f3fa79 ("Merge commit 'v2.6.39' into for-2.6.40/core") was incorrectly done, and re-introduced the DISK_EVENT_MEDIA_CHANGE lines that had been removed earlier in commits - 9fd097b14918 ("block: unexport DISK_EVENT_MEDIA_CHANGE for legacy/fringe drivers") - 7eec77a1816a ("ide: unexport DISK_EVENT_MEDIA_CHANGE for ide-gd and ide-cd") because of conflicts with the "g->flags" updates near-by by commit d4dc210f69bc ("block: don't block events on excl write for non-optical devices") As a result, we re-introduced the hanging behavior due to infinite disk media change reports. Tssk, tssk, people! Don't do back-merges at all, and *definitely* don't do them to hide merge conflicts from me - especially as I'm likely better at merging them than you are, since I do so many merges.

block: don't block events on excl write for non-optical devices

2011-04-21T18:54:46Z

Disk event code automatically blocks events on excl write. This is primarily to avoid issuing polling commands while burning is in progress. This behavior doesn't fit other types of devices with removeable media where polling commands don't have adverse side effects and door locking usually doesn't exist. This patch introduces new genhd flag which controls the auto-blocking behavior and uses it to enable auto-blocking only on optical devices.
