Subject: any interest in unreferenced header files throughout the tree?
Date: Tue, 29 Sep 2009 19:11:55 -0400 (EDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.LFD.2.00.0909291906060.9535@localhost> (raw)


  with a minor tweak to one of my scripts, i can now identify all
header files throughout the source tree that no one seems to be using,
and i can generate that output broken down as usual by logical
subdirectories.

  as a simple example, under fs/, there appears to be a single unused
header file:

  fs/xfs/xfs_refcache.h

if there's interest, i can generate output for the entire tree and
post it at the normal wiki location.

rday

p.s.  there's a *lot* of them under arch/.
