The trend overall is to integrate the compat stuff more closely into where the native implementation lives, so this would just follow that trend. I think with Christoph's latest patches, about half of them are going away as well. > Reason: there's a lot more users of linux/compat.h than those of > linux/syscalls.h - it's pulled by everything in the networking stack, > for starters... Right, the network headers pull in almost everything else through multiple indirect inclusions, anything we can do to reduce that helps. Arnd
