This patch was introduced in commit r16412 for the brcm47xx target only and then moved to generic in commit r32395. It was initially added because of ticket #5186 and should fix some problems with fuse file systems and MIPS caches. The commit comment in r32395 says that this a generic problem in MIPS CPUs, but does not name any specifics about that. There was a fix added to kernel 2.6.21 in commit commit 7575a49f20 "[MIPS] Implement flush_anon_page()." that should fix this problem, but that was already available before both commits were done to OpenWrt. I just tested fuse with ntfs.3g without this patch on a BCM4704 (BMIPS3300 V0.6) SoC and haven't seen any problems. Someone reported that removing this patch improves some fuse operations by 5 times on some modern MIPS cores. My test was only a simple "dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/zero bs=5000" to an USB stick. This patch removes the patch to OpenWrt, because I assume that it is not needed any more and Felix, the orginal author, also thinks so. Signed-off-by: Hauke Mehrtens <hauke@hauke-m.de> |

README
This is the buildsystem for the LEDE Linux distribution. Please use "make menuconfig" to choose your preferred configuration for the toolchain and firmware. You need to have installed gcc, binutils, bzip2, flex, python, perl, make, find, grep, diff, unzip, gawk, getopt, subversion, libz-dev and libc headers. Run "./scripts/feeds update -a" to get all the latest package definitions defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default respectively and "./scripts/feeds install -a" to install symlinks of all of them into package/feeds/. Use "make menuconfig" to configure your image. Simply running "make" will build your firmware. It will download all sources, build the cross-compile toolchain, the kernel and all choosen applications. To build your own firmware you need to have access to a Linux, BSD or MacOSX system (case-sensitive filesystem required). Cygwin will not be supported because of the lack of case sensitiveness in the file system. Sunshine! Your LEDE Community http://www.lede-project.org
