Hello Huang, I don’t see what you say here exactly, but let me note that all llist macros are safe except the llist_for_each_entry_safe(). > parameters "pos" and "n" must be variable. Because list_xxx family > functions work well so far, I think we needn't to change it too. I see. I don't want to argue much wrt such a trivial thing but I think it would be better to fix it since the fix is fairly simple and clear. However, it's ok if the fix introduces a bad thing at least. > Best Regards, > Huang, Ying
