I agree it's redundant. I tend to include this kind of thing anyway in case OVS ever gets ported to a compiler that lacks C99 bool. With such a compiler, one usually typedefs bool to char, and conversion to char will lose any 1-bit above bits 0...7, which could cause really subtle problems. And with a compiler that does have C99 bool, I imagine that the extra != 0 is harmless. Oh, I see that I even mentioned this in CodingStyle: * bool and <stdbool.h>, but don't assume that bool or _Bool can only take on the values 0 or 1, because this behavior can't be simulated on C89 compilers. > Acked-by: YAMAMOTO Takashi <yamam...@valinux.co.jp> Thanks! _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/dev
