:> Modified files: :> lib/libdisk chunk.c libdisk.h :> Log: :> Modify Delete_Chunk() into Delete_Chunk2() which can take a flags :> argument. Leave a compatibility shim for Delete_Chunk(). :> :> Implement DELCHUNK_RECOVER flag so sysinstall can ask libdisk :> to recover space when deleting a chunk. : :Why not implement a Merge_Chunk() that takes two chunks and tries to delete the :second and move its space into the first. This would seem to be a cleaner :change in the API. : :-- : :John Baldwin <jhb@FreeBSD.org> <>< http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ :"Power Users Use the Power to Serve!" - http://www.FreeBSD.org/ If you had suggested this a month ago when I (A) was doing most of this work and (B) had time and (C) we weren't 8? days away from an RC or release, then maybe. Now... you'll have to wait until Jordan gets his stuff in after the release or someone else decides to work on the code (instead of just complain about it). -Matt To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
