Nack, there's a difference between "sizeof *task" and "sizeof(struct task_struct)". The former operates on a unary expression and the latter operates on a type. There are over 1000 occurrences in the kernel where the sizeof operator, the former, is used on a unary expression. -- 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/
