in 2.4 (it fetched the same hd_geometry struct only with uint cylinders instead
of ushort cylinders: nothing that big has ever accurately reported gemoetry,
it's all LBA.
Also stop declaring the hd_geometry struct static: it's two chars, a short, and
a long for a grand total of 8 bytes. That can go on the stack.
Make hdparm smaller:
* Make bb_ioctl return the status
* Replace ioctl with bb_ioctl in a few places
* Add bb_ioctl_alt, use where appropriate (four places)
* unsigned char args1[4+512] = {WIN_IDENTIFY,0,0,1,};
ate 0.5k of rodata, fix that
This is a bulk spelling fix patch against busybox-1.00-pre10.
If anyone gets a corrupted copy (and cares), let me know and
I will make alternate arrangements.
Erik - please apply.
Authors - please check that I didn't corrupt any meaning.
Package importers - see if any of these changes should be
passed to the upstream authors.
I glossed over lots of sloppy capitalizations, missing apostrophes,
mixed American/British spellings, and German-style compound words.
What is "pretect redefined for test" in cmdedit.c?
Good luck on the 1.00 release!

Hi to all,
I discovered a little bug in hdparm.c
(really two little bugs...I've made...sigh! Mea culpa).
Some vars were modified only locally and this could lead to wrong
results to be displayed with the -I switch and maybe with others.
Attached is a patch that fix it ( +88b).
Also attached is second patch that reduces the size a little bit:
text data bss dec hex filename
27984 624 900 29508 7344 hdparm.o (without bug-fix)
28072 624 900 29596 739c hdparm.o (with bug-fix)
28141 624 900 29665 73e1 hdparm.o (original)
but maybe this one can wait as we are in a feature freeze.
Ciao,
Tito
should we rename the define into CONFIG_FEATURE_HDPARM_HDIO_DMA and
use it for "set" and "get" ???
Since although CONFIG_FEATURE_HDPARM_HDIO_GET_DMA is _not_ set I still
can use "hdparm -d 1 /dev/hda" to switch the DMA on.
Is this desireable or meant to be like that?
So how about the applied patch?
