But this one is really meagre, i.e. it would make no difference when placing it as statement. I have read through some of the discussions on inlining and am referring to http://lwn.net/Articles/166172/ There, Linus Torvalds and Andrew Morton suggest to decide on a case-by-case analysis. I believe it is good practice to tell the compiler the intention (and thus have started to use `const' for similar reasons). Would you be ok with moving that function into ccid3.h instead? - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe dccp" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
