KAME is right on this. We should keep the old one if at all possible. The only other thing we might want to do is move 'phys_index' to 'start_phys_index', and make a new 'phys_index' that does a WARN_ONCE(), gives a deprecated warning, then calls the new 'start_phys_index' code. So, basically make the new, more clear name, but keep the old one for a while and deprecate it. Maybe we could get away with removing it in ten years. :) -- Dave _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
