No. As I said on the description: > A separate patch sequence follows which will add helper routines > for the ida index functions. I'll be sending out that patch series today (I hope). I *do* believe it would be useful to add some ida helper routines, since callers of these routines seem mostly to use a uniform calling sequence. But even so some of the callers do things differently enough so that I was not comfortable changing them to use the helper routines. But the "idr" routines, i.e. the ones that manage both an index *and* a pointer, which are the ones I'm using in hosts.c, are not called so uniformly, so helper routines did not seem like a good idea. -- Lee Duncan -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
