Subject: cvs.opensolaris.org "definition" search is broken
Date: Mon, 11 Feb 2008


The "definition" search at http://cvs.opensolaris.org seems to be quite
broken.

For example, try to search for the "definition" of 
"npe_query_acpi_mcfg".  It will return not found.  Now, put that same 
string in "full search", and a definition is clearly available on line 
60 of npe_misc.c.

When you are looking at code for, say function foo(), and foo() calls
function bar(), then bar() is a link on the web page.  Presumably, 
clicking on the link for bar() should take you to the definition of that 
function.  But, it just takes you to the "not found" search results page.

For example, once you get to the code for npe_query_acpi_mcfg(), click 
on "MCFG_TABLE" on line 62.  You get no search results because the 
search was for a "definition".  Now, plug "MCFG_TABLE" into "full 
search", and the search results yield a definition on line 56 of acpi_pci.h
