  Hi, all. Version 218 of my devfs patch is now available from:
http://www.atnf.csiro.au/~rgooch/linux/kernel-patches.html
The devfs FAQ is also available here.

Patch directly available from:
ftp://ftp.??.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/rgooch/v2.5/devfs-patch-current.gz

AND:
ftp://ftp.atnf.csiro.au/pub/people/rgooch/linux/kernel-patches/v2.5/devfs-patch-current.gz

NOTE: kernel 2.5.1 and later require devfsd-v1.3.19 or later.

This is against 2.5.43. Highlights of this release:

- Removed DEVFS_FL_AUTO_OWNER flag

- Switched lingering structure field initialiser to ISO C

- Added locking when setting/clearing flags

- Documentation fix in fs/devfs/util.c

                                Regards,

                                        Richard....
