Some more comments in the code probably wouldn't help. e.g. each file should have some description at the top what it does. What I always wonder with new complex networking protocols (which ceph essentially is): has there been some auditing/testing what happens when a server feeds unexpected/out of bounds data to the client? e.g. a security audit would be good. Otherwise you might end up with remote exploits. -Andi -- ak@...ux.intel.com -- Speaking for myself only. -- 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/
