I was trying to define a back-compat version of recalc_sigpending_tsk() too, before going through all the code and changing recalc_sigpending(current) to recalc_sigpending and recalc_sigpending(other) to recalc_sigpending_tsk() - but as you rightly point out there's no justification for using the latter in any of the driver or fs code that I'm trying to support - and hence it isn't present, and doesn't need the compat support. -- dwmw2 - 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/
