Subject: [PATCH] ring_buffer: remove unused ring_buffer size
Date: Wed, 17 Dec 2008 17:48:23 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4948CAE7.107@cn.fujitsu.com> (raw)
struct ring_buffer.size is not set after ring_buffer is initialized
or resized. it is always 0.
we can use "buffer->pages * BUF_PAGE_SIZE" to get ring_buffer's size
