Hi,

is there a change to get the new generic kfifo API merged into the
linux-next, mm- or the upcoming 2.6.34 tree?

All features and complains are implemented. I got a lot of commits and
positve feedback but no ack's.

So the question is should i continue to work?

If i get an okay for the merge, the next steps will be:

- add a short HOWTO file into the Documentation directory
- replace all kfifo_out_locked() into kfifo_out_spinlocked() and
replace all kfifo_in_locked() into kfifo_in_spinlocked()
- modify the drivers to use the type based FIFO
- maybe port drivers which use its own fifo implementation to the new
kfifo API

Stefani ;-)
