Hi. I've just recently cleaned up a copy of the HFS Plus driver to
apply to 2.6.1. I'd like to submit it for inclusion in your -mm series,
so I don't have to keep maintaining something that's out of tree. HFS+
support is one of those things I'd like to see in 2.6 soon, so things
like my Mac iPod and friend's HFS+ formatted firewire drives will work
on my Linux machines :)
I don't remember where I grabbed this driver, I only know it's much
more current than the one at
http://sourceforge.net/projects/linux-hfsplus. I've used it a lot for
my iPod on 2.4, and have had success with it on 2.6. I haven't done
much with the kernel, so it may or may not be entirely a sane driver
(please review!). The only changes I've done to the stock distribution
were updating some prototypes for type changes and parameter additions,
and changing kdev_t_to_nr to the newer format that the fs drivers use.
