-1. Need to figure out why PCI writes to the IOC3 hang, and if it is okay

-2. Need to figure out RRB allocation in bridge_startup().

-Qlogic scsi controllers.
-4. Need to integrate ip27-klconfig.c:find_lboard and
-ip27-init.c:find_lbaord_real. DONE
-5. Is it okay to set calias space on all nodes as 0, instead of 8k as
-in irix?
-6. Investigate why things do not work without the setup_test() call
-being invoked on all nodes in ip27-memory.c.
-8. Too many do_page_faults invoked - investigate.
-9. start_thread must turn off UX64 ... and define tlb_refill_debug.
-10. Need a bad pmd table, bad pte table. __bad_pmd_table/__bad_pagetable
-does not agree with pgd_bad/pmd_bad.
-11. All intrs (ip27_do_irq handlers) are targeted at cpu A on the node.
-This might need to change later. Only the timer intr is set up to be
-received on both Cpu A and B. (ip27_do_irq()/bridge_startup())
-13. Cache flushing (specially the SMP version) has to be investigated.

-==========
-
-* Convert comments to the Kernel-Doc format.
-
-* Befs_fs.h has gotten big and messy. No reason not to break it up into 
-	smaller peices.
-
-* See if Alexander Viro's option parser made it into the kernel tree. 
-	Use that if we can. (include/linux/parser.h)
-
-* See if we really need separate types for on-disk and in-memory 
-	representations of the superblock and inode.

- - support asynchronous operation -- add a per-fs 'reserved_space' count,
-   let each outstanding write reserve the _maximum_ amount of physical
-   space it could take. Let GC flush the outstanding writes because the
-   reservations will necessarily be pessimistic. With this we could even
-   do shared writable mmap, if we can have a fs hook for do_wp_page() to
-   make the reservation.
- - disable compression in commit_write()?
- - fine-tune the allocation / GC thresholds
- - chattr support - turning on/off and tuning compression per-inode
- - checkpointing (do we need this? scan is quite fast)
- - make the scan code populate real inodes so read_inode just after 
-	mount doesn't have to read the flash twice for large files.
-	Make this a per-inode option, changeable with chattr, so you can
-	decide which inodes should be in-core immediately after mount.
- - test, test, test
-
- - NAND flash support:
-	- almost done :)
-	- use bad block check instead of the hardwired byte check
-
- - Optimisations:
-   - Split writes so they go to two separate blocks rather than just c->nextblock.
-	By writing _new_ nodes to one block, and garbage-collected REF_PRISTINE
-	nodes to a different one, we can separate clean nodes from those which
-	are likely to become dirty, and end up with blocks which are each far
-	closer to 100% or 0% clean, hence speeding up later GC progress dramatically.
-   - Stop keeping name in-core with struct jffs2_full_dirent. If we keep the hash in 
-     the full dirent, we only need to go to the flash in lookup() when we think we've
-     got a match, and in readdir(). 
-   - Doubly-linked next_in_ino list to allow us to free obsoleted raw_node_refs immediately?
-   - Remove size from jffs2_raw_node_frag. 
-
-dedekind:
-1. __jffs2_flush_wbuf() has a strange 'pad' parameter. Eliminate.
-2. get_sb()->build_fs()->scan() path... Why get_sb() removes scan()'s crap in
-   case of failure? scan() does not clean everything. Fix.

-Steve's quick list of things that need finishing off:
-[they are in no particular order and range from the trivial to the long winded]
-
- o Proper timeouts on each neighbour (in routing mode) rather than
-   just the 60 second On-Ethernet cache value.
-
- o Support for X.25 linklayer
-
- o Support for DDCMP link layer
-
- o The DDCMP device itself
-
- o PPP support (rfc1762)
-
- o Lots of testing with real applications
-
- o Verify errors etc. against POSIX 1003.1g (draft)
-
- o Using send/recvmsg() to get at connect/disconnect data (POSIX 1003.1g)
-   [maybe this should be done at socket level... the control data in the
-    send/recvmsg() calls should simply be a vector of set/getsockopt()
-    calls]
-
- o check MSG_CTRUNC is set where it should be.
-
- o Find all the commonality between DECnet and IPv4 routing code and extract
-   it into a small library of routines. [probably a project for 2.7.xx]
-
- o Add perfect socket hashing - an idea suggested by Paul Koning. Currently
-   we have a half-way house scheme which seems to work reasonably well, but
-   the full scheme is still worth implementing, its not not top of my list
-   right now.
-
- o Add session control message flow control
-
- o Add NSP message flow control
-
- o DECnet sendpages() function
-
- o AIO for DECnet
