| |
Hello everyone!
The following patch series attempts to constify several structures that hold function pointers. This is only the initial batch, there are about over 150 candidate structures, some of which can be constified as well, I plan to submit them in the future.
The list of constified structures in this series: acpi_dock_ops address_space_operations backlight_ops block_device_operations dma_map_ops e1000_mac_operations e1000_nvm_operations e1000_phy_operations extent_io_ops file_lock_operations file_operations hv_ops intel_dvo_dev_ops item_operations iwl_ops kgdb_arch kgdb_io kset_uevent_ops lock_manager_operations microcode_ops mtrr_ops neigh_ops nlmsvc_binding pci_raw_ops platform_hibernation_ops platform_suspend_ops snd_ac97_build_ops super_operations sysfs_ops usb_mon_operations wd_ops
There are certain exceptions where a given instance of the structure cannot be const, they are marked with a comment in the patch.
The patches compile fine with an allyesconfig kernel on i386 and x86_64.
Please let me know if any of these structures should not be constified and any other issues you see with them.
Thanks, Emese
