According to the (2.4.9) MAINTAINERS-File, ISOFS doesn't have a maintainer,
so this probably best fits in this list.
I came across a (commercial) DVD with an ISOFS Filesystem on it and filesizes
bigger than 1M.
I.e. "ls -l /mnt/cdrom/video_ts" shows
total 8153965

Actually, that is what it _should_ show. Here is the actual output:
(kernel versions 2.2.18 through 2.4.9)
$ ls -l /mnt/cdrom/video_ts
Warning: defective CD-ROM. Enabling "cruft" mount option.

Notice the corrupt filesizes. The culprit is obviously in the code which
"printk"s the "cruft" message above.
In 2.4.9-kernel/fs/isofs/inode.c around line 1190 it says
if ((inode->i_size < 0 || inode->i_size > 1073741824) &&
inode->i_sb->u.isofs_sb.s_cruft == 'n') {
printk(KERN_WARNING "Warning: defective CD-ROM. "
"Enabling \"cruft\" mount option.\n");
inode->i_sb->u.isofs_sb.s_cruft = 'y';
}
My personal guess would be that the assumption that iso files can't be
bigger than 1M unless the CD-ROM is defective is wrong.
(I don't know where the 1M comes from. 2M sounds more logical to me,
however)
After removing the "indode->i_size > 1073741824" test, I got the correct
output for ls. Also was I able to cat (css-cat, actually) the whole 1201278976
bytes without an error, which may lead to the assumption the file
is actually that big.
If I'm wrong and the dvd is actually broken, however, I'd like to
suggest making the automatic cruft mount optional.
Greetings
Matthias
