I made a pre6, which contains a new-and-anal "kdev_t".
The format of the thing is the same as it used to be, ie 16 bits of
information, but I made it a structure so that you _couldn't_ mix up
"dev_t" and "kdev_t", or use the "kdev_t" as a number (so when kdev_t
expands to 12+20 bits later in 2.5.x you shouldn't get surprises)
I fixed up the stuff I use and which showed up in compiles (on a source
level, it's so far totally untested), but I'd really like people to check
out their own subsystems. _Especially_ NFS and NFSD, which had several
cases of mixing the two dev_t's around, and which also used them as
numbers. Trond, Neil?
Because the types aren't at all compatible any more, the macros that are
used for user-level "dev_t" are no longer working for a kdev_t. So we have
dev_t kdev_t
MKDEV(major,minor) mk_kdev(major, minor)
MAJOR(dev) major(dev)
MINOR(dev) minor(dev)
dev == dev2 kdev_same(dev, dev2)
!dev kdev_none(dev)
and _most_ of the time the fixes are trivial - just translate as above. It
only gets interesting when you have code that looks at the value or starts
mixing the two and compares a "dev_t" against a "kdev_t", which can be
quite interesting.
The knfsd file handle thing is also an issue - Neil, please check out that
what I did looks sane, and would be on-the-wire-compatible with the old
behaviour, even when we expand kdev_t to 12+20 bits, ok?
(Marcelo, for easier backporting of drivers to 2.4.x, we'll probably want
to eventually add
#define mk_kdev(a,b) MKDEV(a,b)
#define major(d) MAJOR(d)
...
to the 2.4.x <linux/kdev_t.h> so that you can move drivers back and
forth).
Apart from some knfsd issues, most of the kdev_t users were proper. The
strict type-checking found one bug in the SCSI layer (which I knew about,
and was one of the impetuses for doing it in the first place), and found a
lot of small "works-but-will-break-with-a-bigger-kdev_t" issues).

Well, I suspect that we actually should also make the format explicit, and
basically use the same translation that I did for the NFS filehandle. That
way it's still just a cookie, but it's a cookie with (a) explicit size and
(b) meaning that won't change over different kernel revisions.
Hmm?

Looks good, and yes, it makes a lot more sense from an EXDEV standpoint to
check the superblock, as "i_dev" really has no good meaning for many
filesystems.

true, each filesystem needs to figure out how to make sure their on-disk
format doesn't change across kernel revisions... Storing the raw i_rdev
onto disk definitely silly but it appears to be an issue some
filesystems will have to deal with. I'm leaving reiserfs alone so they
can make a policy decision...

The attached patch is making the mentioned kernel usable by propagating the
kdev_t handling to much more dirvers.
Of esp. interrest is the fact that there where some places, where NODEV
was used
instead of ENODEV:
linux-new/drivers/net/defxx.c
linux-new/fs/dquot.c
linux-new/drivers/media/video/cpia.c
I see lots of people sending patches for kdev_t.
In order to possibly avoid duplication of work,
I put my patch at ftp.kernel.org:
2.5.2pre6-kdev_t-diff (415841 bytes)
It has kminor and kmajor, but if that is not desired
a very simple edit on the patch will turn them into
minor and major.
(It is incomplete, but a good start.)

It doesn't build for me in make_rdonly() in ext3 with debug
configured in:
Yes. Still w.i.p. but a better version is now

The attached patch is making the SCSI "mid-layer" vomit bag usable again.
I have fixed some very ugly offenders as well in due course:
1. Moved the "informative" scsi_device_types[MAX_SCSI_DEVICE_CODE];
2. Unneccessary/inappriopriate locking in ppa.c
3. "Write only" field in Scsi_CD struct:
unsigned readcd_cdda:1; /* reading audio data using READ_CD */
It get's only set but is never used and never needed.
After having a look at this SCSI code I really got the opinnion that it
was written
buy someone who didn't know what functions and local variables are good for.
Everything there seems to be done in a maximally terse style...
Anyway.

Compiles and boots fine with my config - laptop including ext2,

Hi Linus & Marcelo,
Sorry I'm a bit late in replying. AFAICS as of 2.5.2-pre9, all is
more or less well, however when reviewing that code, I noticed what is
probably a bug:
Given that (for character devices) the value of inode->i_cdev in
2.[45].x depends on the i_rdev, it would appear to be a bug for us to
be able to change inode->i_rdev *after* we've called
init_special_inode().
For this reason, I'd advocate removing the lines in
nfs_refresh_inode() that reset the inode->i_rdev (as per the patch
below) and instead rely on the ordinary stale inode checks to tell us
if/when the inode->i_rdev has changed.
It's hardly a new bug. It's been around ever since we added
init_special_inode(), so it's clearly not one that bites us every day
of the year. Even so, the same patch should probably be applied to
2.4.x.
Cheers,
Trond

Precisely this "not any big deal" is the point: It was the wrong

So what's the right approach? I can invent my own easily enough,
but each driver doing its own thing doesn't seem right. I assumed
that it was in scsi.c foi common usage, so each driver that wanted
to say, use these device type strings in diagnostic messages or
some such wouldn't have to reinvent this wheel, and so all the
drivers would consistently use the same names. Will it be
replaced with something else?
Just want to know so I don't waste (even more :-) time
doing something dumb.
Thanks,

Please just case in the ->type enum. And if you wan't to provide special
messages, well
then please do it yourself, the removal showed, that nearly no one
driver used the generic
stuff, so it wasn't trully generic at all. (It should be handled by some
userlevel stuff anyway...)

I don't understand why below removal are needed.
Do you think to replace with function like scsi_device_types()?

Martin,
Please don't post a omnibus SCSI subsystem patch like this.
Most of the code you are changing is actively maintained.
For example:
- scsi mid-level + sr [Jens Axboe]
- ppa [Tim Waugh]
- sg [me]
Some of us have grown attached to the way 'cat /proc/scsi/scsi'
looks. More importantly, many distributions have scripts that
parse it. GOTO Masanori's <[email protected]> suggestion of
of an exported scsi_device_types() seems a better option.
Also there are 32 SCSI device types (0 to 31) and perhaps
the "unknown"s and those that are missing could be replaced
by scsi_dev_<n> .
Also there is an appropriate newsgroup for this sort of
proposal and it is called: [email protected]

There where just two drivers for obsolete hardware which actually used this.
