Could you list the specific items/features that you > think Peter's stuff doesnt have? First of all, this isn't an either/or kind of thing nor should it be thought of in that way. Precise file/function/line placement for one thing. My patch is specifically for -rt which does checks that Peter's doesn't and is needed to characterize -rt better. My stuff is potentially more extensible since I have other ideas for it that really are outside of the lockdep logic currently. These can be unified, but not so that one overrides the intended features of other. That's why I was hessitant to completely unify with lockdep in the manner you suggested. bill - 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/
