Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Content-Length: 853 Lines: 22 It would appear that, starting with 2.4.19, follow_page -- a fairly friendly way to get the struct page backing a virtual address (as in vmalloc virtual) -- has been removed from mm.h and made static to mm/memory.c. LXR shows that this function was present in 2.4.18; the Changelog doesn't seem to mention anything about this (although I may have missed something, Changelog-2.4.19 is over 100KB). Is there a new way to do this? Furthermore, is all of this stuff documented somewhere other than the various comments in the kernel source? -- - Stevie-O Real Programmers use COPY CON PROGRAM.EXE - 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/
