The patch titled Subject: kfifo: introduce and use kfifo_skip_count() has been added to the -mm mm-nonmm-unstable branch. Its filename is kfifo-introduce-and-use-kfifo_skip_count.patch This patch will shortly appear at https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/25-new.git/tree/patches/kfifo-introduce-and-use-kfifo_skip_count.patch This patch will later appear in the mm-nonmm-unstable branch at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm 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/process/submit-checklist.rst when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next via the mm-everything branch at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm and is updated there every 2-3 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: "Jiri Slaby (SUSE)" <jirislaby@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: kfifo: introduce and use kfifo_skip_count() Date: Fri, 23 Feb 2024 12:51:53 +0100 kfifo_skip_count() is an extended version of kfifo_skip(), accepting also count. This will be useful in the serial code later. Now, it can be used to implement both kfifo_skip() and kfifo_dma_out_finish(). In the latter, 'len' only needs to be divided by 'type' size (as it was until now). And stop using statement expressions when the return value is cast to 'void'. Use classic 'do {} while (0)' instead. Note: perhaps we should skip 'count' records for the 'recsize' case, but the original (kfifo_dma_out_finish()) used to skip only one record. So this is kept unchanged and 'count' is still ignored in the recsize case.
