I'd prefer something that could be detected with the information available in the switch(spec.type) in vsnprintf() itself. It is, however, available as a last resort. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
