Fair enough and nice. But why don't you make __be32 a struct > (just like I do) so that compiler could complain then? structs get passed on the stack instead of via registers, regardless of size, when passed as arguments on some architectures, so there is a terrible performance cost of doing things that way - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
