Hello Toshi,
I made a couple fixes to your patch -- get_kernel_config() always failed
because the "return ret" below always gets executed, returning IKCFG_N,
and the second test for IKCONFIG_LOADED is missing the parentheses:
+ } else if (!(kt->ikconfig_flags & IKCONFIG_LOADED)) {
+ read_in_kernel_config(IKCFG_SETUP);
+ ===> if (!kt->ikconfig_flags & IKCONFIG_LOADED)
+ error(WARNING,
+ "Failed read_in_kernel_config(IKCFG_SETUP)\n");
+ ===> return ret;
+
I also made the dump_kernel_table() display of the kt->ikconfig_flags a bit
more informative, and changed a couple of the error messages slightly.
Thanks for the contribution -- it's queued for the next release.
Dave
