  Hi, all. Version 162 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.
This work has been sponsored by SGI.

This is against 2.3.99-pre6-2. Highlights of this release:

- Set inode->i_size to correct size for symlinks
  Thanks to Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@goop.org>

- Only give lookup() method to directories to comply with new VFS
  assumptions

- Remove unnecessary tests in symlink methods

- Don't kill existing block ops in <devfs_read_inode>

- Restore auto-ownership for /dev/pty/m*

                                Regards,

                                        Richard....
