This looks fine to me, I'm going to add it to audit#next-queue. Also, can you think of a good reason why "audit_backlog_wait_overflow" exists? I'm going to replace it with the simple "audit_backlog_wait_time = 0;" unless you can think of a solid reason not to do so. It seems much more obvious and readable to me. -- paul moore www.paul-moore.com -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
