code.

I can't find sparse.txt (or *sparse*) in any 2.6 kernel tree I have. I can't find any reference to 'sparse' in any file in Documentation/*, nor can I find any .txt files in the sparse repository itself, nor any documentation in that repository that references __CHECKER__. I can't find any documentation on __CHECKER__ or sparse on the internet, either.


I did find the linux-sparse mailing list at http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-sparse&r=1&w=2, but as I expected, I found no documentation searching its archives.
