Hi,
is there a change to get the new generic kfifo API merged into the linux-next, mm- or the upcoming 2.6.34 tree?
All features and complains are implemented. I got a lot of commits and positve feedback but no ack's.
So the question is should i continue to work?
If i get an okay for the merge, the next steps will be:
- add a short HOWTO file into the Documentation directory - replace all kfifo_out_locked() into kfifo_out_spinlocked() and replace all kfifo_in_locked() into kfifo_in_spinlocked() - modify the drivers to use the type based FIFO - maybe port drivers which use its own fifo implementation to the new kfifo API
Stefani ;-)
