[PATCH 0/2] minix: modernize function declarations and eliminating some magic numbers

[Jeremy Bingham]

Another set of minix patches fixing issues that I noticed while working
on other things. The various dirsize and namelen values being set in
minix_fill_super() in inode.c, which vary depending on the versions of
the minix filesystem and how it was created, were being set as magic
numbers. The function declarations in minix.h were also a mix of current
and historic kernel coding standards, where some function declarations
had arguments with types and names while others had only types. This
became an annoyance when updating minix.h because checkpatch.pl would
gripe about improper function declarations.

Create and use #defines for the various dirsize and namelen values in
minix_fill_super, and modernize the function declarations in minix.h.

Both patches have been tested by mounting and performing file operations
against v1, v2, and v3 minix filesystem volumes. Neither of them have
any functional changes.

[PATCH 1/2] minix: define constants for dirsize and namelen

[Jeremy Bingham]

The different versions of the minix fs have different values for
directory size and name length. Versions 1 and 2 each have two possible
values for each of those, while version 3 has one set of values for
each. Add defines for all of these to minix.h so we don't need to set
those values as magic numbers in minix_fill_super() in inode.c

Before:
	sbi->s_dirsize = 16;
After:
	sbi->s_dirsize = MINIX_V1_DIRSIZE;

There are no functional changes with this patch.

Hi Jeremy,

Thanks for taking the time to look at minix. I have a particular fondness of the
filesystem, so I am happy someone takes an interest.

However, I don't like this series. There is no reason for all this churn or the
exorbitant amount of comments. If you can get iomap to work that would be great,
but please don't do this.

Thanks,
Jori.

[PATCH 2/2] minix: modernize function declarations in minix.h

[Jeremy Bingham]

The function prototypes in minix.h were a mix of current and historic
standards. Some functions had arguments with types and names while
others had just the types. Some functions were also still prefixed with
extern, and there were a few uses of bare 'unsigned' still as well.

This brings fs/minix/minix.h up to speed with the current formatting
standards. Function declarations are consistent with types and names
both declared, and the bare 'unsigned' variables are now declared as
'unsigned int'.

There are no functional changes with this patch.
