The header lustre_cfg.h is meant to be a UAPI header file. It is used for our userland tools but with the current shape of lustre_cfg.h upstream our tools will not build with it. So having kzalloc and kfree in this header is incorrect. To do this right I need to update our user land tools as well so we should hold off on these patches. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
