Jesper Juhl was both pointed at the cocci docs and given a cocci script. He said he'd investigate it when he could. I trust he will get to it. I think that for this sort of patchset, grep and manual inspection works just as well as spatch and likely better because a simple cocci script doesn't transform code like: if (size > PAGE_SIZE) ptr = vmalloc(size); else ptr = kmalloc(size, GFP); if (ptr) memset(ptr, 0, size); I did say in the 00 cover that this was broken up just to cc the maintainers of each block. I also think a single rolled-up single patch is good. I believe Jiri Kosina can easily apply all these individual patches as a single patch if he chooses. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
