- Bootgraph - Unified timer API (nanosecond would be nice) - initcall - 'pre-console' output buffer - timestamped printf()
Looking forward to opening up these cans of worms again :)
Bravery is to be encouraged. Biting off what seems like the smallest, what is the status of pre-console output?
I made the requested changes, the pre-console buffer only gets compiled in if it is explicitly configured and it works a treat
I see no reason not to include it (along with the pre-console printf() squelching)
I agree, it has my vote. I will test it again this week and come back to you.
The only related patch that was under discussion was 'flagifying' a couple of global variables which opened up a question regarding the impact on API versioning - Wolfgang resolved this with 'gd does not impact API version' so the 'flagify' patch could also be added to the mix, but that's not really that critical and could come in later after the dust settles.
OK yes, I remember, a separate patch then.
Unified timer API would be the next 'least contentious' - There is universal agreement on the why, but not on the how. I'll reopen this again 'soon'
Good, and good luck
The initcall API is the most contentious... Asbestos suit is still on the clothes line drying ;)
I'm impressed that you didn't wear that out with the timer stuff. You must have bought a really high quality suit!
