Subject: PID virtualisation snafu


Are there any web archives of l-k that give out the email address of
the author?

I can tell the author of the virtualisation patches hasn't even tried to
compile them. Here's one example:

- host->host_no, tmp->pid, tmp->device->id, tmp->device->lun, tmp->result);
+ host->host_no, tmtask_pid(p), tmp->device->id, tmp->device->lun, tmp->result);

Regardless, that was me.

Not only compiled, but on several architectures. Thanks for
catching this. And your point is well taken - these need to be
tested with 'make allmodconfig', since the pid accesses happen
in all sorts of drivers...

thanks,
