Perhaps the name might be better as barrier_stems. Also, ideally this would be longest match first or use \b after the matches so that $all_barriers could work successfully without a following \s*\( my $all_barriers = qr{ (?:smp|virt)_(?:barrier_stems)| $barriers) }x; or maybe add separate $smp_barriers and $virt_barriers <shrug> it doesn't matter much in any case -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-arch" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
