The next request would be to change all arrays destined for bitops to be defined using unsigned long.specifically: Just cast to 'unsigned long *' when you use those ops. Why work around details of the way that Linux happens to do atomic ops in our interfaces? -- Keir _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel |
