But I prefer a function instead, can you resend with something ala: static inline int ioprio_set(int which, int who, int ioprio) { return syscall(__NR_ioprio_set, which, who, ioprio); } and ditto for ioprio_get()? -- Jens Axboe - 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/
