Subject: Re: [PATCH] Rework of /proc/stat
Date: Thu, 07 Mar 2002 14:53:25 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3C8770D5.3040108@linkvest.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <E16iyHy-0002Ij-00@the-village.bc.nu>

So, what could be said is that the sard (which IS in 2.4.19-per1-ac2) 
has features:
- all devices available (not only major < 16)
- stat struct is in the request_queue, not in kstat anymore
- All structs are dynamic, no static allocation of per-device structs.
So, it's all we need.

The only drawback is:
- infos are in /proc/partitions not in /proc/stat (some apps get infos 
there...)

Right?
-jec

PS: When will it be in official tree? An idea?
