kmap() can fail? It is either translated to page_address() or kmap_high() (on x86), neither of which may return NULL. However, only kmap_atomic() is documented as being guaranteed to return a valid value. If we could have a similar definitive statement for kmap(), we can then cleanup quite a bit of redundant error handling. -Chris -- Chris Wilson, Intel Open Source Technology Centre -- 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/
