From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Behan Webster Subject: [PATCH V2 0/3] Removing the use of VLAIS from USB Gadget and netfilter Date: Tue, 30 Oct 2012 17:18:54 -0400 Message-ID: <1351631937-21455-1-git-send-email-behanw@converseincode.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: QUOTED-PRINTABLE Cc: linux-usb@vger.kernel.org, netfilter-devel@vger.kernel.org, linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org, Behan Webster To: balbi@ti.com, davem@davemloft.net Return-path: Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org List-Id: netfilter-devel.vger.kernel.org This is a V2 version of the patch set I previously sent out. Since the = use of a new valign.h file spans both the USB and netfilter subsystems, I should= have sent out all 3 patches to both trees at once. Assuming all is well, hop= efully both subsystems can cooperate to get these patches in without causing conflicts. The use of variable length arrays in structs (VLAIS) in the Linux Kerne= l code precludes the use of compilers which don't implement VLAIS (for instanc= e the Clang compiler). The LLVMLinux Project is working towards the ability o= f providing the Linux kernel developer the choice of using the Clang comp= iler toolchain. This is a part of a series of patches which remove the use o= f VLAIS from crypto code, dm-crypt, jbd2, libcrc32c, netfilter, and usb gadget.= Other patches to allow Clang to be used to compile the Linux kernel will foll= ow.
