I think I understand correctly the concept of cnew_no_ctor macro in dtable.cc now. cnew_no_ctor calls fhandler_console(void *) instead of fhandler_console(fh_devices) to omits initialization of instance for stat() call. This might make stat() slightly faster. Based on this understanding, I would like to withdraw the previous patch, and propose new patch series. Could you please review the patch seriese? -- Takashi Yano <takashi.y...@nifty.ne.jp>
