And TBH I would prefer the same approach elsewhere - this kind of hidden state makes it hard to do any kind of analysis. Put it that way - the simplest situation is when the allocation flags depend only on the call site. Next one is when it's a function of call chain - somewhat harder to review. And the worst is when it's a function of previous history of execution - not just the call chain, but the things that had been called (and returned) prior to that one. How many of those locations need to be of the third kind? All fs/namespace.c ones are of the first one... _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
