What if we just use two possible decelerations? One of static structs and one for regular ones. struct hash_table { size_t bits; struct hlist_head buckets[]; }; #define DEFINE_HASHTABLE(name, bits) \ union { \ struct hash_table name; \ struct { \ size_t bits; \ struct hlist_head buckets[1 << bits]; \ } __name; \ } #define DEFINE_STATIC_HASHTABLE(name, bit) \ static struct hash_table name = { .bits = bit, \ .buckets = { [0 ... (bit - 1)] = HLIST_HEAD_INIT } } -- 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/
