Ok, I'll bite. ceph_mount_info_t -> struct ceph_mount_info *, etc. If we do the same on librados it'd be a rev change, yep. It would also improve compiler warnings.. I was bit last night by rados_aio_create_completion(0, 0, 0, &a); rados_aio_write(io_ctx, "a", a, buf, 100, 0); vs rados_aio_write(io_ctx, "a", &a, buf, 100, 0); because the typedefs are all void*. sage > > > Chapter 5: Typedefs > > > > Please don't use things like "vps_t". > > > > It's a _mistake_ to use typedef for structures and pointers.
