As I went into the editor I just found the above already fixed in #v14-pre3. And I can't move the structure into the file anymore without kmallocing it. Exposing that structure avoids the ERR_PTR/PTR_ERR on the retvals and one kmalloc so I think it makes the code simpler in the end to keep it as it is now. I'd rather avoid further changes to the 1/N patch, as long as they don't make any difference at runtime and as long as they involve more than cut-and-pasting a structure from .h to .c file. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event.
