2006-05-30[MTD] Allow alternate JFFS2 mount variant for root filesystem.Joern Engel
With this patch, "root=mtd3" and "root=mtd:foo" work for a JFFS2 rootfs. Signed-off-by: Joern Engel <joern@wh.fh-wedel.de>
2006-05-15[PATCH] root mount failure: emit filesystems attemptedAndy Whitcroft
When we fail to mount from a valid root device list out the filesystems we have tried to mount it with. This gives the user vital diagnostics as to what is missing from their kernel. For example in the fragment below the kernel does not have CRAMFS compiled into the kernel and yet appears to recognise it at the RAMDISK detect stage. Later the mount fails as we don't have the filesystem. RAMDISK: cramfs filesystem found at block 0 RAMDISK: Loading 1604KiB [1 disk] into ram disk... done. XFS: bad magic number XFS: SB validate failed No filesystem could mount root, tried: reiserfs ext3 ext2 msdos vfat iso9660 jfs xfs Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(8,1) Signed-off-by: Andy Whitcroft <apw@shadowen.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2006-03-26do_mounts.c: Minor ROOT_DEV comment cleanupFlorin Malita
The ROOT_DEV comment is no longer accurate, it now seems to be initialized in init/do_mounts.c. Signed-off-by: Florin Malita <fmalita@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Adrian Bunk <bunk@stusta.de>
2006-03-24[PATCH] vfs: MS_VERBOSE should be MS_SILENTTheodore Ts'o
The meaning of MS_VERBOSE is backwards; if the bit is set, it really means, "don't be verbose". This is confusing and counter-intuitive. In addition, there is also no way to set the MS_VERBOSE flag in the mount(8) program in util-linux, but interesting, it does define options which would do the right thing if MS_SILENT were defined, which unfortunately we do not: #ifdef MS_SILENT { "quiet", 0, 0, MS_SILENT }, /* be quiet */ { "loud", 0, 1, MS_SILENT }, /* print out messages. */ #endif So the obvious fix is to deprecate the use of MS_VERBOSE and replace it with MS_SILENT.

2005-09-02[PATCH] remove driverfs references from init/do_mounts.cRolf Eike Beer
This patch is against 2.6.10, but still applies cleanly. It's just s/driverfs/sysfs/ in this file. Signed-off-by: Rolf Eike Beer <eike-kernel@sf-tec.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

Remove ROOT_DEV after unexporting it in the previous patch, as requested time ago by Christoph Hellwig.

2005-07-12[PATCH] name_to_dev_t warning fixAndrew Morton
kernel/power/disk.c needs a declaration of name_to_dev_t() in scope. mount.h seems like an appropriate choice. Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

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!
