I've put up an actualized loop-iv-2.4.10.patch http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/hvr/ fyi, just ignoring the rejects would have been the right thing, since what the failed hunk was supposed to fix, has been already fixed in 2.4.10... :-) another nice thing is, that the other 2.4.10 changes to loop.c allow us to get rid of one buffer-allocate+copy-overhead, by the use of LO_FLAGS_BH_REMAP, so we can use in-place encryption... now I've got only to audit the ciphers to check, whether they are safe regarding in-place operation... regards, -- Herbert Valerio Riedel / Phone: (EUROPE) +43-1-58801-18840 Email: hvr@xxxxxxxxxx / Finger hvr@xxxxxxx for GnuPG Public Key GnuPG Key Fingerprint: 7BB9 2D6C D485 CE64 4748 5F65 4981 E064 883F 4142
