From 62a3d29539aa109fed1c8a20d63ef95948b13842 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jozsef Kadlecsik Date: Mon, 23 Aug 2010 16:48:14 +0200 Subject: Cleanup, compatibility - Use is_vmalloc_addr when freeing vmalloc or kmalloc-ed areas. Thus we can get rid of a flag and simplify some functions. - When checking "same" sets, ignore hash size, because resizing changes it. - 2.6.35 compatibility added. - Discuss backward/forward compatibilities in the README file. --- README | 11 +++++++++++ 1 file changed, 11 insertions(+) (limited to 'README') diff --git a/README b/README index 45d3eb9..6c7749f 100644 --- a/README +++ b/README @@ -54,3 +54,14 @@ That's it!
