Subject: [PATCH 1/5] pktcdvd: Fix overflow for discs with large packets

From: Phillip Susi <[email protected]>

The pktcdvd driver was using an 8 bit field to store the packet length
obtained from the disc track info. This causes it to overflow packet
length values of 128KB or more. I changed the field to 32 bits to fix
this.

The pktcdvd driver defaulted to its maximum allowed packet length
when it detected a 0 in the track info field. I changed this to fail
the operation and refuse to access the media. This seems more sane
than attempting to access it with a value that almost certainly will
not work.

Subject: [PATCH 4/5] pktcdvd: Don't waste kernel memory

Allocate memory for read-gathering at open time, when it is known just
how much memory is needed. This avoids wasting kernel memory when the
real packet size is smaller than the maximum packet size supported by
the driver. This is always the case when using DVD discs.

Subject: [PATCH 5/5] pktcdvd: Allow larger packets

From: Phillip Susi <[email protected]>

The pktcdvd driver uses a compile time macro constant to define the
maximum supported packet length. I changed this from 32 sectors to
128 sectors because that allows over 100 MB of additional usable space
on a 700 MB cdrw, and increases throughput.

Note that you need a modified cdrwtool program that can format a CDRW
disc with larger packets to benefit from this change.

Hmm this is useful to do dmesg|grep pktcdvd though when you compile it in the
kernel. So I would like to keep it in.

Just my 2 cents.

Why is it useful? The actual version number can't be that useful since
it hasn't been updated since 2004. If you just want to know if the
driver is currently in the kernel, you can do:

cat /proc/misc | grep pktcdvd
