The idea was to get a sense for what sort of improvements would be useful, to begin with. But my attempt to start a discussion on the kernel summit list appears to have hit the ground pretty hard; I guess that means I have free rein :) I expect I'll apply the struct-args doc patch in the fairly near future. Then we'll see if others complain when patches using it start to show up, but the feature itself shouldn't break anything. I'm *really* hoping to take a hard look at Danilo's stuff for a 4.3 merge as well. It should be possible, but there's real-world obnoxiousness that is doing its best to get in the way. jon -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
