The patch titled Subject: sysctl: use bitmap library functions has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was sysctl-use-bitmap-library-functions.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ From: Akinobu Mita <akinobu.mita@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: sysctl: use bitmap library functions Use bitmap_set() instead of using set_bit() for each bit. This conversion is valid because the bitmap is private in the function call and atomic bitops were unnecessary. This also includes minor change. - Use bitmap_copy() for shorter typing Signed-off-by: Akinobu Mita <akinobu.mita@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- kernel/sysctl.c | 8 +++----- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) diff -puN kernel/sysctl.c~sysctl-use-bitmap-library-functions kernel/sysctl.c --- a/kernel/sysctl.c~sysctl-use-bitmap-library-functions +++ a/kernel/sysctl.c @@ -23,6 +23,7 @@ #include <linux/swap.h> #include <linux/slab.h> #include <linux/sysctl.h> +#include <linux/bitmap.h> #include <linux/signal.h> #include <linux/printk.h> #include <linux/proc_fs.h> @@ -2393,9 +2394,7 @@ int proc_do_large_bitmap(struct ctl_tabl } } - while (val_a <= val_b) - set_bit(val_a++, tmp_bitmap); - + bitmap_set(tmp_bitmap, val_a, val_b - val_a + 1); first = 0; proc_skip_char(&kbuf, &left, '\n'); } @@ -2438,8 +2437,7 @@ int proc_do_large_bitmap(struct ctl_tabl if (*ppos) bitmap_or(bitmap, bitmap, tmp_bitmap, bitmap_len); else - memcpy(bitmap, tmp_bitmap, - BITS_TO_LONGS(bitmap_len) * sizeof(unsigned long)); + bitmap_copy(bitmap, tmp_bitmap, bitmap_len); } kfree(tmp_bitmap); *lenp -= left; _ Patches currently in -mm which might be from akinobu.mita@xxxxxxxxx are origin.patch linux-next.patch ocfs2-use-find_last_bit.patch ocfs2-use-bitmap_weight.patch -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe mm-commits" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
