BK_USER, BK_HOST have been around forever but their use is discouraged for the following reason: BK is a distributed system, we need unique names for things, and the user&host are part of the name we make up.
bk comments is new and a darned useful thing, too, I'm glad Linus asked for it. You just have to read the man page and realize that your updates to the comments may not propogate. -- --- Larry McVoy lm at bitmover.com http://www.bitmover.com/lm - 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/
