[PATCH 1/4] ipc: Use __seq_open_private() instead of seq_open()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Using __seq_open_private() removes boilerplate code from
sysvipc_proc_open().

The resultant code is shorter and easier to follow.

However, please note that  __seq_open_private() call kzalloc() rather than
kmalloc() which may affect timing due to the memory initialisation overhead.
