Hi, list.
Recently I came to the conclusion that the way that I work with kernel
code is inefficient, and I spend too much time looking for a needed
piece of code.
I work with vim and cscope, but cscope is annoying. For example, if I
want to know what size_t is typedef'ed to, I will recieve all the size_t
variables at kernel, and then all the ssize_t variables at kernel, and
then both prototypes and definitions of all the functions that return
size_t or ssize_t or recieve them as an argument.
Personally, I think that I need a tool that analyses a code semantically
and not textually, but that's not a requirement if the tools is capable
of doing its work well.
My fellow workers said that they tried using Eclipse and KDevelop, but
they both are very slow and are incapable of processing project as big
as Linux kernel and get stuck trying to do an initial import.
Bottom line: I'd like to ask all the kernel gurus out there to describe
their kernel hacking environment -- editor, code browsing plug-in,
general tips, etc.
