Subject: [PATCH 0/8] Slab: Remove GFP_XX aliases from slab.h
Date: Tue, 28 Nov 2006 16:44:26 -0800 (PST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20061129004426.11682.36688.sendpatchset@schroedinger.engr.sgi.com> (raw)
slab.h contains a series of definitions that are simply aliases
for gfp_XX. This duplication makes it difficult to search for uses
of f.e. GFP_ATOMIC. Strange mixtures of uses of __GFP_xx with SLAB_xx
exist in some pieces of code.
This patchset removes all the aliases from slab.h and also removes all
occurrences.
I have tried to order these by size so that it is possible to just take the
first few of these patches should they be considered to be too complex.
