My beef with your proposal > is that I believe the length of the list should be 2. 0, 1, or infinity are the only credible sizes for this sort of list. However I feel I've written enough on this particular issue (the particular meaning of the various fields, not the directory location which I still feel strongly about). Providing the fields are clearly and unambiguously documented so that it I can use the documentation to verify the implementation (in md at least), I will be satisfied. And if the names of the files actually match the documented meaning (so e.g. s/io/write/) I might even be happy. I'm looking forward to seeing how you justify the name "physical_block_size" in a way the encompasses possibilities like a device that stripes over a heterogeneous set of disk drives ;-) Thanks, NeilBrown -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ide" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
