If this kind of patch goes in, I'd like to see a burst of 50 or 100 lines allowed, at least early on. If virtme's init stuff runs for more than five seconds, something's wrong anyway. That being said, virtme will be happily immune to a per-struct file approach, since it's mostly written in sh and it does things like "echo virtme-initramfs: in ur box eating ur cycles" >/dev/kmsg. --Andy -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
