I understand the comparison, but I just think it's better if people
always keep track of what has been allocated and what has not. I tried
so hard to get Markus to stop sending those hundreds of patches where
he's like "this function has a sanity check so we can pass pointers
that weren't allocated"... It's garbage code.
But I understand that other people don't agree.
regards,
dan carpenter
