IIRC, it's both __FUNCTION__ and string concatenation that's deprecated. __FUNCTION__ is supposed to be replaced by __func__, but since older gcc's don't support it and the gcc folks will continue to support __FUNCTION__ indefinitely (or so has been said on lkml), the kernel will continue to use __FUNCTION__. As for string concatenation, instead of printk(KERN_DEBUG "in function " __FUNCTION__ ".\n"); one is supposed to use printk(KERN_DEBUG, "in function %s.\n", __FUNCTION__); -- Muli Ben-Yehuda http://www.mulix.org/ mulix@mulix.org:~$ sctrace strace /bin/foo http://syscalltrack.sf.net/ Quis custodes ipsos custodiet? http://www.mulix.org/cv.html -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
