I think the later patches may need a little massage but I will be happy to work through that. Chandra, here is how I plan to proceed with your series: - Change that (void *) to a (char *) in patch [8/12] - Drop patch [2/12] from the series, and adjust all of its successors in the series accordingly. - Run the result through some test cycles - Commit it and publish it on oss.sgi.com I will not commit the above until I get your OK on it, so please let me know if you have any objection, or affirm that you have none by responding to this message. Separately, out of all this came a few other suggestions, which would be great for you to handle (or reject) if you're open to it: - Get rid of the definition and use of xfs_buf_target_name(), by verifying that comparable information is already provided everywhere it's used. - Eliminate all references to __psint_t and __psunsigned_t in the XFS code, using uintptr_t in place where it is absolutely necessary. - Look into having xfs_qm_dqalloc() return ENOMEM when it is unable to allocate a buffer, and fix all the callers up the chain so they handle such a situation appropriately. Right now such errors get reset. Thanks. -Alex _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
