That doesn't make sense because the caller only cares about the keyslot number, not the 'struct keyslot'. The 'struct keyslot' is internal to keyslot-manager.c, as it only contains keyslot management information. Your earlier suggestion of making blk_ksm_put_slot() be a no-op on a negative keyslot number sounds fine though. - Eric _______________________________________________ Linux-f2fs-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-f2fs-devel
