I'm not sure that there's any point in that.  Sure, we can slap two
files together; what the hell for?  Both are quite large, there's
a (relatively) sane separation of code between them (misc. files
contents in /proc/<pid>/ vs. directory structure and symlinks in
there, more or less) and I don't see any benefit in mashing them
together.  Up to Alexey, but IMO that's pointless.

No strong opinions here.

AFAIK Alexey isn't doing procfs any more?

Hi, Al.

Just as what I said in the description of that patch, one only has 
extern functions that are _only_ used in another as function pointers.

And the size of code can't be a reason why they are seperated, we have
much more source files larger than this one. :)

Thanks.

Er...  So what?  Amount of functions made static is not, per se, a
useful metrics of anything.

Not only about static, but also because they are used via function pointers.

Logically, it is better for these functions used via pointers to be kept in
the same file with the struct which holds these function pointers.

I think this patch can be dropped from your series as Wolfgang
proposed a newer, improved version here,
http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/6/10/63.  I'm guessing his new patch is
going to be taken through Pierre's tree?

I am going to agree with Al here.  array.c has a well defined function
and purpose.  base.c is on it's way to becoming a dumping ground.  The
only reason the functions in array.c are used directly in base.c is
that we don't have a way to dynamically register struct pid_entry's.

Given the number of ifdefs in base.c it looks like it could really benefit
from splitting up.   I made it about half way there last time I was working
on proc.
