Subject: Re: [PATCH -v10 0/4] Lock-less list
Date: Wed, 19 Jan 2011 13:55:46 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110119135546.bb7e8f62.akpm@linux-foundation.org> (raw)

I'm trying to remember why we're talking about this.

You had an ACPI-based "hardware error reporting" thing.  And that
required an nmi-context memory allocator.  And that required a
"lockless" list implementation.

Yes?

If so, what happened to all of that?  I assume that the facilities
which this patch series adds will be used for "hardware error reporting"?
