2008-04-24V4L/DVB (7580): Fix concurrent read from /proc/videocodecsAlexey Dobriyan
Observation one: ->write_proc and ->data assignments aren't needed. Removed. Observation two: codecs lists are unprotected. Patch doesn't fix this. Observation three: /proc/videocodecs printout is done to temporary _global_ buffer which is freed in between. Consequently, two users hitting this file can screwup each other. Steps to reproduce: modprobe videocodec while true; do cat /proc/videocodecs &>/dev/null; done & while true; do cat /proc/videocodecs &>/dev/null; done & The fix is switching to seq_files, this removes code, especially some line-length "logic".

2007-10-22V4L/DVB (6320): v4l core: remove the unused .hardware V4L1 fieldMauro Carvalho Chehab
struct video_device used to define a .hardware field. While initialized on severl drivers, this field is never used inside V4L. However, drivers using it need to include the old V4L1 header. This seems to cause compilation troubles with some random configs. Better just to remove it from all drivers. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@infradead.org>

2006-12-13[PATCH] getting rid of all casts of k[cmz]alloc() callsRobert P. J. Day
Run this: #!/bin/sh for f in $(grep -Erl "\([^\)]*\) *k[cmz]alloc" *) ; do echo "De-casting $f..." perl -pi -e "s/ ?= ?\([^\)]*\) *(k[cmz]alloc) *\(/ = \1\(/" $f done And then go through and reinstate those cases where code is casting pointers to non-pointers. And then drop a few hunks which conflicted with outstanding work.

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
