| |
Hi, I'm hoping to use rhashtable in lustre, to replace the resizeable hashtable implementation in libcfs. While working through the conversion I found some minor bugs in the rhashtable code and documentation, and some areas where enhancements could make rhashtable a better fit for lustre.
Following 6 patches are the result. Please review.
It would help me if I could get an Ack for these patches, and could then submit them through the drivers/staging tree together with the lustre changes that make use to rhashtable. The first 2 are mostly just fixes to comments and can go in through the netdev tree if you prefer - the last 4 are needed for lustre to work correctly/optimally.
Thanks, NeilBrown
