The patch titled Subject: fs/buffer.c: make __getblk_slow() static has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is fs-bufferc-make-__getblk_slow-static.patch This patch should soon appear at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/fs-bufferc-make-__getblk_slow-static.patch and later at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/fs-bufferc-make-__getblk_slow-static.patch Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next and is updated there every 3-4 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: fs/buffer.c: make __getblk_slow() static __getblk_slow() was exported to modules in commit 3b5e6454aaf6 ("fs/buffer.c: support buffer cache allocations with gfp modifiers"). This seems to have been a mistake, as no users were introduced nor was the function declared in a header. Change it back to 'static'.
