Just to repeat myself: This is clearly a problem for tsort(1): Give restrictions of the form "This has to come after that" (perhaps a special comment at the start of the file containing the init function?), tsort that and pick the order out of the result. Should be a few lines of script. No central repository for the dependencies, no messing around with half the world to fix dependencies. Plus they become explicit, which they aren't today. -- Horst von Brand http://counter.li.org # 22616 - 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/
