It's been a few months (and a couple of kernel releases) since I mentioned this
before and it doesn't look like it's made it in, and I haven't seen any more
comments on it in the list archives, so I'm bringing it up again in case it
just got forgotten about somewhere along the line..
As I

Is init permanently running after you see a couple of these?
No, that is, after 23 hours up time it has used only 6 seconds CPU time
(according to top).
That reminds me that I should repeat
Thanks for your advice,
I already know one way to accomodate shared memory between a user process
and the kernel.
This is done by making a character device which allocates memory in the
kernel, then from the user appl, using the mmap function of the driver.
I was only wondering why I could not

Scott McDermott [EMAIL PROTECTED] convinced me the way
to fix my problem with SMBFS was to use the INIT_LIST_HEAD() macro.
This allows SMBFS to compile and may even be correct:

Is this a 2.4.0 issue? Because I see the warnings on 2.2.18
too, and also building alsa-driver. I use modutils 2.3.22.
binutils 2.10.1.0.2. glibc 2.2.
2.2.17 reported the same, 2.4.0-test11 too (but I never ran
this one).
The compiler is egcs 1.1.2. gcc is a symlink to egcs-2.1.96.

Hello!
It is the bar cookies in pci dev structure that are insane, in my opinion.
If a driver needs BARs values, it needs actual BARs values and not some
stinking cookies. What a driver can do with BAR cookies other than using
them as band-aid for dubiously designed kernel interface.
If a

So, if you want to fix this insane PCI interface:
1) Provide the _actual_ BARs values in the pci dev structure, otherwise
drivers that need them will have to deal with ugly hackery or access
