So the question is are we willing to do all these changes across the tree to achieve common definitions of KB, MB, GB, TB in the kernel ? Is it worth ?No I don't think it's worth the churn. But have you looked at using the "proper" names, ie. KiB, MiB, GiB? AFAICS the only clash is: drivers/mtd/ssfdc.c:#define KiB(x) ( (x) * 1024L ) drivers/mtd/ssfdc.c:#define MiB(x) ( KiB(x) * 1024L ) Which would be easy to convert.
Sure, will take a look into generalizing KiB/MiB/GiB instead of current proposal for KB/MB/GB. -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@kvack.org.
