Yeah, that would certainly be possible. My goal was to remove the most egregiously irrelevant code from the kernel, in addition to unused functions which would generate -Wframe-larger-than compiler warnings. My tooling doesn’t have the logic to reason about >= relationships yet. If it isn’t too hard to add, I may go ahead and do that, otherwise I will leave it for future work. I view that as a “nice to have” instead of a hard requirement, though let me know if you disagree. Best, Nick > [1] Documentation/process/changes.rst > > Best Regards > Michał Mirosław
