Minix is a simple operating system used in many classes about OS's.
|
|
|
|
|
The minix file system (method to organize files on a hard disk
|
|
|
|
|
partition or a floppy disk) was the original file system for Linux,
|
|
|
|
|
but has been superseded by the second extended file system ext2fs.
|
|
|
|
|
You don't want to use the minix file system on your hard disk
|
|
|
|
|
because of certain built-in restrictions, but it is sometimes found
|
|
|
|
|
on older Linux floppy disks. This option will enlarge your kernel
|
|
|
|
|
by about 28 KB. If unsure, say N.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To compile this file system support as a module, choose M here: the
|
|
|
|
|
module will be called minix. Note that the file system of your root
|
|
|
|
|
partition (the one containing the directory /) cannot be compiled as
|
|
|
|
|
a module.

bitops: remove minix bitops from asm/bitops.h
minix bit operations are only used by minix filesystem and useless by
other modules. Because byte order of inode and block bitmaps is different
on each architecture like below:
m68k:
big-endian 16bit indexed bitmaps
h8300, microblaze, s390, sparc, m68knommu:
big-endian 32 or 64bit indexed bitmaps
m32r, mips, sh, xtensa:
big-endian 32 or 64bit indexed bitmaps for big-endian mode
little-endian bitmaps for little-endian mode
Others:
little-endian bitmaps
In order to move minix bit operations from asm/bitops.h to architecture
independent code in minix filesystem, this provides two config options.
CONFIG_MINIX_FS_BIG_ENDIAN_16BIT_INDEXED is only selected by m68k.
CONFIG_MINIX_FS_NATIVE_ENDIAN is selected by the architectures which use
native byte order bitmaps (h8300, microblaze, s390, sparc, m68knommu,
m32r, mips, sh, xtensa). The architectures which always use little-endian
bitmaps do not select these options.
Finally, we can remove minix bit operations from asm/bitops.h for all
architectures.
