That's true now, but it wasn't always. Until the last year or so,
cdrecord wouldn't work properly with USB CD drives having a 64-sector
limit unless the user added a particular command-line argument.
This is a bug that is known since ~ 3 years and that has been fixed
_very_ recently. It

Hi Linus,
A couple of fixes for potential fs corruption.
And one fix to ensure that xfs_mru_cache is not
doing anything unless the cache has active objects.
Please pull from the for-linus branch:
git pull git://oss.sgi.com:8090/xfs/xfs-2.6.git for-linus
This will update the following

Hmm, we might do something like:
timer_gettime(fd | POSIX_TIMER_FD, .);
So the kernel looks up the fd in order to figure out the timer_id, which

include/asm-powerpc/elf.h has 6 entries in ARCH_DLINFO.
fs/binfmt_elf.c has 14 unconditional NEW_AUX_ENT entries and 2

So in the worst case, saved_auxv does not get an AT_NULL entry at the

The saved_auxv array must be terminated with an AT_NULL entry.

Perhaps it would be helpful if you identified specific individuals who
