Hi!


MAKEDEV sources almost 500KB of config files on every invocation, and the
inner loop is terribly inefficient.  The second patch allows it to shrink
the files to 55KB while expressing the same info and makes the inner loop
more efficient.  Depending on how many modprobe and MAKEDEV invocations
are done on your box during bootup, this can or might not make meassurable
difference.


I've just pushed MAKEDEV 3.23-7 into koji should be in rawhide soon.

MAKEDEV is now hosted on git.fedorahosted.org for anyone who cares.

Thanks Jakub.

Dave.

Has anyone made any bootcharts? Is there any word on how much this gains us at boot time?
