Hi.

Each of this filenames (ie dbg_stackcheck\.) was grepped trough whole
source, finding no references.

Comments?

Patches can be found at:
http://coderock.org/kernel/janitor/unreferenced_files/

(4 files with 2004 copyright message are not included in .bz2 as there
 are chances it's a uncomplete merge)

This is a "skeleton" driver, and is in the tree to be used as an example
for others who want to write a pci hotplug driver.  It should stay.

Along those lines, how come you didn't include the usb-skeleton.c file
in your list (it too should stay, but it isn't part of the build...)?

thanks,

If I understand Domen's mail correctly, the mentioning of usb-skeleton 
in Documentation/DocBook/writing_usb_driver.tmpl and 
drivers/usb/input/xpad.c should be enough for preventing listing it.

Hi Greg,

Why these drivers are under the build tree and not in Documentation/
directory? Is it documented anywhere? I'm just curious.

Thanks,

Because people don't expect to see source code in the Documentation/
directory :)

I don't really know, that's just the way these types of files have
always been (look at drivers/net/pci-skeleton.c and
drivers/net/isa-skeleton.c as where I got the idea to write
usb-skeleton.c and pcihp_skeleton.c from.)

thanks,

greg k-h

Yes, i see more skel stuff inside the tree and i think that it needs
some discussion or at least don't use skeleton as part of a file name
that will be compiled. AFAIK, we've some of them sitting at
arch/m68k/..., but i can't check atm. What do you think?

Why not make a Documentation/driver-skeletons.txt?  I can write it, if everyone 
can point me in the direction of where all the skeleton and example files are.

I agree, you're free to submit it but i've no idea if it will be
accepted. 

`find . -name *skel*` under the tree is a good guess, but you'll see
some files that aren't skeletons. Actually, we can't say that all
skeletons are with *skeleton* in their filenames, you can start the
documention with these above and after that ask at lkml for more. 


Hope that helps,

as greg already said, you won't expect code under Documentation.
i won't push such patches.

please pick something usefull.
