No documentation though :( In light of all of the problems with perfctr here, I've gone and done the ifdef work for CONFIG_PERFCTR, presenting an alternative solution to the struct problem... http://triplehelix.org/~joshk/perfctr.diff (note: this includes the earlier fix from wli as well, just for convenience) I realize that this might be a problem with regards to maintenance. Doing this is kind of a pain in the ass. > -have-xfs-use-kernel-provided-qsort.patch > -have-xfs-use-kernel-provided-qsort-fix.patch > > These broke Broke how? I hadn't seen these patches when I was initially fixing problems with -rc2-mm1 overall. I even came up with a patch that made XFS depend on QSORT and remove it from the fs/xfs/Makefile, but I guess that's exactly what happened here... Otherwise, XFS has to depend on !QSORT, and that might be bad if anyone else depends on it.
