Actually there is a way to do this: add a fixed precision argument that would stop the logarithmic reduction when the desired precision were reached. You'd still have to do the precision discrimination in the call, so something like num > 1Mib ? call for precision of 6 : call for precision of 3 James -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-efi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
