Hi, I am trying to clean up the remaning sleep_on*() calls in the kernel. These functions have been deprecated for a *long* time, just never completely removed :) The only file I'm not comfortable with changing myself (since I am not a MIPS user/expert) is arch/mips/kernel/process.c. This file references sleep_on(), sleep_on_timeout(), interruptible_sleep_on() and interruptible_sleep_on_timeout(). This file is (presuming my upcoming patches for sleep_on() go through Kernel-Janitors ok) the final one before we can declare the kernel clean of sleep_on() callers -- the other members of the family will take longer. Any insight anyone could provide would be great, so that this milestone (for me, at least) can be achieved. Thanks, Nish |
