that *was* the complete patch -- its purpose was simply to make asm-generic/ioctl.h general enough to allow arch-specific ioctl.h files to *subsequently* be simplified. there was no need to do *everything* in one step -- each simplification could be submitted as a separate arch-specific patch, as many things are. i was more asking about the *philosophy* of that patch, and whether there were any obvious objections. rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
