- array_size-check-for-type.patch removed from -mm tree

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

 



The patch titled
     ARRAY_SIZE: check for type
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     array_size-check-for-type.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

------------------------------------------------------
Subject: ARRAY_SIZE: check for type
From: Rusty Russell <rusty@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

We can use a gcc extension to ensure that ARRAY_SIZE() is handed an array,
not a pointer.  This is especially important when code is changed from a
fixed array to a pointer.  I assume the Intel compiler doesn't support
__builtin_types_compatible_p.
