Subject: [PATCH] [2.6.0-test3] request_firmware related problems.
Date: Mon, 11 Aug 2003 00:15:11 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20030810221510.GA13529@ranty.pantax.net> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1230 bytes --]

 Hi,

 Please apply the following patches.
 
 Matthew Wilcox seams busy lately and didn't confirm the PCI changes,
 but I have tested them and it works. He can modify it later with nicer
 code if he finds it necessary, sysfs binary support has been broken for
 too much time already being in this stage of development :-/.

 Since this is just a single change plus side effects I just merged it
 back together.

 ChangeLog:
	- undo recent change, made in the believe that "buffer" was the
	  size of the whole file, it is just PAGE_SIZE in size. This was
	  causing kernel memory corruption.

		- Since files are allowed to have unknown sizes, by
		  setting their size to 0, we can't preallocate a buffer
		  of their size on open.

	- Adapt request_firmware() to the sysfs change.

  	- Adapt drivers/pci/pci-sysfs.c to the sysfs change.

 Sorry again for the multi-patch email

 	Manuel

Let us have the serenity to accept the things we cannot change, courage to
change the things we can, and wisdom to know the difference.
