Subject: 2.4 direct_IO API changing?
Date: Sun, 06 Jul 2003 15:11:40 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3F08746C.6010803@pobox.com> (raw)

I see in 2.4.22-BK-latest:

> -       int (*direct_IO)(int, struct inode *, struct kiobuf *, unsigned long, int);
> +       int (*direct_IO)(int, struct file *, struct kiobuf *, unsigned long, int


Should this really be changing in the middle of a stable series?

I realize that vendor's are already shipping this difference, but 
still...  it's a bit of an abrupt midseries change that can potentially 
break working code.
