+Optimized MPEG Filesystem (OMFS)
+
+Overview
+========
+
+OMFS is a filesystem created by SonicBlue for use in the ReplayTV DVR
+and Rio Karma MP3 player. The filesystem is extent-based, utilizing
+block sizes from 2k to 8k, with hash-based directories. This
+filesystem driver may be used to read and write disks from these
+devices.
+
+Note, it is not recommended that this FS be used in place of a general
+filesystem for your own streaming media device. Native Linux filesystems
+will likely perform better.
+
+More information is available at:
+
+ http://linux-karma.sf.net/
+
+Various utilities, including mkomfs and omfsck, are included with
+omfsprogs, available at:
+
+ http://bobcopeland.com/karma/
+
+Instructions are included in its README.
+
+Options
+=======
+
+OMFS supports the following mount-time options:
+
+ uid=n - make all files owned by specified user
+ gid=n - make all files owned by specified group
+ umask=xxx - set permission umask to xxx
+ fmask=xxx - set umask to xxx for files
+ dmask=xxx - set umask to xxx for directories
+
+Disk format
+===========
+
+OMFS discriminates between "sysblocks" and normal data blocks. The sysblock
+group consists of super block information, file metadata, directory structures,
+and extents. Each sysblock has a header containing CRCs of the entire
+sysblock, and may be mirrored in successive blocks on the disk. A sysblock may
+have a smaller size than a data block, but since they are both addressed by the
+same 64-bit block number, any remaining space in the smaller sysblock is
+unused.
+
+Sysblock header information:
+
+struct omfs_header {
+ __be64 h_self; /* FS block where this is located */
+ __be32 h_body_size; /* size of useful data after header */
+ __be16 h_crc; /* crc-ccitt of body_size bytes */
+ char h_fill1[2];
+ u8 h_version; /* version, always 1 */
+ char h_type; /* OMFS_INODE_X */
+ u8 h_magic; /* OMFS_IMAGIC */
+ u8 h_check_xor; /* XOR of header bytes before this */
+ __be32 h_fill2;
+};
+
+Files and directories are both represented by omfs_inode:
+
+struct omfs_inode {
+ struct omfs_header i_head; /* header */
+ __be64 i_parent; /* parent containing this inode */
+ __be64 i_sibling; /* next inode in hash bucket */
+ __be64 i_ctime; /* ctime, in milliseconds */
+ char i_fill1[35];
+ char i_type; /* OMFS_[DIR,FILE] */
+ __be32 i_fill2;
+ char i_fill3[64];
+ char i_name[OMFS_NAMELEN]; /* filename */
+ __be64 i_size; /* size of file, in bytes */
+};
+
+Directories in OMFS are implemented as a large hash table. Filenames are
+hashed then prepended into the bucket list beginning at OMFS_DIR_START.
+Lookup requires hashing the filename, then seeking across i_sibling pointers
+until a match is found on i_name. Empty buckets are represented by block
+pointers with all-1s (~0).
+
+A file is an omfs_inode structure followed by an extent table beginning at
+OMFS_EXTENT_START:
+
+struct omfs_extent_entry {
+ __be64 e_cluster; /* start location of a set of blocks */
+ __be64 e_blocks; /* number of blocks after e_cluster */
+};
+
+struct omfs_extent {
+ __be64 e_next; /* next extent table location */
+ __be32 e_extent_count; /* total # extents in this table */
+ __be32 e_fill;
+ struct omfs_extent_entry e_entry; /* start of extent entries */
+};
+
+Each extent holds the block offset followed by number of blocks allocated to
+the extent. The final extent in each table is a terminator with e_cluster
+being ~0 and e_blocks being ones'-complement of the total number of blocks
+in the table.
+
+If this table overflows, a continuation inode is written and pointed to by
+e_next. These have a header but lack the rest of the inode structure.

+Upgrading I2C Drivers to the new 2.6 Driver Model
+=================================================
+
+Ben Dooks <ben-linux@fluff.org>
+
+Introduction
+------------
+
+This guide outlines how to alter existing Linux 2.6 client drivers from
+the old to the new new binding methods.
+
+
+Example old-style driver

+

+struct example_state {

+

+ }

+{
+ struct example_state *state = i2c_get_clientdata(client);
+
+ i2c_detach_client(client);
+ kfree(state);
+ return 0;
+}
+
+static int example_attach_adapter(struct i2c_adapter *adap)
+{
+ return i2c_probe(adap, &addr_data, example_attach);
+}
+
+static struct i2c_driver example_driver = {
+ .driver = {
+ .owner = THIS_MODULE,
+ .name = "example",
+ },
+ .attach_adapter = example_attach_adapter,
+ .detach_client = __devexit_p(example_detach),
+ .suspend = example_suspend,
+ .resume = example_resume,
+};
+
+
+Updating the client
+-------------------
+
+The new style binding model will check against a list of supported
+devices and their associated address supplied by the code registering
+the busses. This means that the driver .attach_adapter and
+.detach_adapter methods can be removed, along with the addr_data,
+as follows:
+
+- static struct i2c_driver example_driver;
+
+- static unsigned short ignore[] = { I2C_CLIENT_END };
+- static unsigned short normal_addr[] = { OUR_ADDR, I2C_CLIENT_END };
+
+- I2C_CLIENT_INSMOD;
+
+- static int example_attach_adapter(struct i2c_adapter *adap)
+- {
+- return i2c_probe(adap, &addr_data, example_attach);
+- }
+
+ static struct i2c_driver example_driver = {
+- .attach_adapter = example_attach_adapter,
+- .detach_client = __devexit_p(example_detach),
+ }
+
+Add the probe and remove methods to the i2c_driver, as so:
+
+ static struct i2c_driver example_driver = {
++ .probe = example_probe,
++ .remove = __devexit_p(example_remove),
+ }
+
+Change the example_attach method to accept the new parameters
+which include the i2c_client that it will be working with:
+
+- static int example_attach(struct i2c_adapter *adap, int addr, int kind)
++ static int example_probe(struct i2c_client *client,
++ const struct i2c_device_id *id)
+
+Change the name of example_attach to example_probe to align it with the
+i2c_driver entry names. The rest of the probe routine will now need to be
+changed as the i2c_client has already been setup for use.
+
+The necessary client fields have already been setup before
+the probe function is called, so the following client setup
+can be removed:
+
+- example->client.addr = addr;
+- example->client.flags = 0;
+- example->client.adapter = adap;
+-
+- strlcpy(client->i2c_client.name, "example", I2C_NAME_SIZE);
+
+The i2c_set_clientdata is now:
+
+- i2c_set_clientdata(&state->client, state);
++ i2c_set_clientdata(client, state);
+
+The call to i2c_attach_client is no longer needed, if the probe
+routine exits successfully, then the driver will be automatically
+attached by the core. Change the probe routine as so:
+
+- ret = i2c_attach_client(&state->i2c_client);
+- if (ret < 0) {
+- dev_err(dev, "failed to attach client\n");
+- kfree(state);
+- return ret;
+- }
+
+
+Remove the storage of 'struct i2c_client' from the 'struct example_state'
+as we are provided with the i2c_client in our example_probe. Instead we
+store a pointer to it for when it is needed.
+
+struct example_state {
+- struct i2c_client client;
++ struct i2c_client *client;
+
+the new i2c client as so:
+
+- struct device *dev = &adap->dev; /* to use for dev_ reports */
++ struct device *dev = &i2c_client->dev; /* to use for dev_ reports */
+
+And remove the change after our client is attached, as the driver no
+longer needs to register a new client structure with the core:
+
+- dev = &state->i2c_client.dev;
+
+In the probe routine, ensure that the new state has the client stored
+in it:
+
+static int example_probe(struct i2c_client *i2c_client,
+ const struct i2c_device_id *id)
+{
+ struct example_state *state;
+ struct device *dev = &i2c_client->dev;
+ int ret;
+
+ state = kzalloc(sizeof(struct example_state), GFP_KERNEL);
+ if (state == NULL) {
+ dev_err(dev, "failed to create our state\n");
+ return -ENOMEM;
+ }
+
++ state->client = i2c_client;
+
+Update the detach method, by changing the name to _remove and
+to delete the i2c_detach_client call. It is possible that you
+can also remove the ret variable as it is not not needed for
+any of the core functions.
+
+- static int __devexit example_detach(struct i2c_client *client)
++ static int __devexit example_remove(struct i2c_client *client)
+{
+ struct example_state *state = i2c_get_clientdata(client);
+
+- i2c_detach_client(client);
+
+And finally ensure that we have the correct ID table for the i2c-core
+and other utilities:
+
++ struct i2c_device_id example_idtable[] = {
++ { "example", 0 },
++ { }
++};
++
++MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(i2c, example_idtable);
+
+static struct i2c_driver example_driver = {
+ .driver = {
+ .owner = THIS_MODULE,
+ .name = "example",
+ },
++ .id_table = example_ids,
+
+
+Our driver should now look like this:
+
+struct example_state {
+ struct i2c_client *client;
+ ....
+};
+
+static int example_probe(struct i2c_client *client,
+ const struct i2c_device_id *id)
+{
+ struct example_state *state;
+ struct device *dev = &client->dev;
+
