SubjectRe: [PATCH 0/4] add task handling notifier
Date
Hi Jan,

I like and support your idea!

Yes, but why export variables? Wouldn't it be better to export
an API?

That simplifies the callers (they all pass "current" as task
and "task_notifier_list" as arguments).

It also prevents exposing internal variables (notifier lists
ARE internal variables) to modules.

What do you think?


Best Regards

Ingo Oeser
