Well, smp_call_function_single() is arch specific whereas on_cpu() is generic code. Perhaps rename smp_call_function_single() to __smp_call_function_single() and on_cpu() to smp_call_function_single()? I dislike the loss of symmetry though. -- Do not meddle in the internals of kernels, for they are subtle and quick to panic. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
