Subject: Patch to sd.c in 2.4.16
Date: Fri, 30 Nov 2001 17:48:00 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20011130174800.B22181@devserv.devel.redhat.com> (raw)
Hi, Marcelo (and the list):
Here's a patch that fixes kfree of static data in sd.c
(and bizzare ooses), also a modest cleanup. Please consider.
It's a fallout of one guy attaching 150 disks.
