It generates frame pointers, but that's not that bad. I'm not aware of any other bad side effects. Ok the compiler will limit your goto usage, but that's more a good thing. But since you always have to strictly limit the array in kernel code anyways you could as well just allocate the fixed limit. -Andi - 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/
