Please gibe me a short answer. These have been in the -mm tree for a few major kernel releases now, right? And they are API safe, and only change the internals, right? If so, I see no objection to merging them now, especially as you will be around to fix up any problems that people have, right? :) thanks, greg k-h -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo(a)vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/

Great. As Andrew doesn't have the time to send them on, want me to? If so, care to point me at them in his tree, or resend them to me? thanks, greg k-h -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo(a)vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/

I have a little pile of kfifo changes queud for 2.6.36. The "generic kfifo" patches are a large rotorooting of the whole facility, based on that work (I hope). There's also the abandoned kfifo-replace-the-old-non-generic-api-kfifo-fix-scatterlist-usage.patch which never got resolved with the originator. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo(a)vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
