I am sorry. Mandrake is using patch from Paul (that has been announced
here as well, see another thread "Removeable Media, partitions and
devfs?", patch is quite old actually.
idefloppy_setup registers "disc" itself:
/*
* Driver initialization.
*/
static void idefloppy_setup (ide_drive_t *drive, idefloppy_floppy_t
*floppy)
{
...
/* Always register drive with devfs */
floppy->de = devfs_register (drive->de, "disc",
DEVFS_FL_REMOVABLE,
major, minor,
S_IFBLK | S_IRUGO | S_IWUGO,
ide_fops, NULL);
/* Create ide/fd entry in devfs */
idefloppy_devfs_handle =
devfs_mk_dir(ide_devfs_handle,"fd",NULL);
sprintf (fname, "c%db%dt%du%d",
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Is not this a devfsd task?
It looks like handle for ..../disc never makes it way into gendisk at
this point.
Is there newer patch? Paul, you probably should not create compat links
in driver.
Robert, sorry, had to do closer look but really had no time :(
