Hi all,

I was looking at the initialization code of UML and I found the function
do_uml_initcalls : 

1: static __init void do_uml_initcalls(void)
2: {
3:      initcall_t *call;
4:  
5:      call = &__uml_initcall_start;
6:       while (call < &__uml_initcall_end){;
7:      (*call)();
8:         call++;
9:  }

First, there's a ';' at the end of line 6 : typo error I guess.

But my point is : this function is unreadable !

It does simply call all the functions in the ".initcall"
section.

Wouldn't it be better to call all the functions explicitely ?

Btw, what is the difference between the initcall and init sections ?

Because I was thinking of another problem : the modules. If some modules
are compiled and that the init_modules functions are put in the initcall
section, then all the modules will be loaded.

That was just some thoughts :p
