  Hi, all. Version 177 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.

Patch directly available from:

This is against 2.4.5. Highlights of this release:

  Thanks to Tim Jansen <tim@tjansen.de>

- Exported <devfs_get_name> to modules

- Make <devfs_mk_symlink> send events to devfsd

- Cleaned up option processing in <devfs_setup>

- Fixed bugs in handling symlinks: could leak or cause Oops

  Thanks to Alexander Viro <viro@math.psu.edu>
