Hi Kay.
What's the master_delay global variable for? Here's how I see it
used, with "grep".
+uint32 master_delay= 0;
+ mi->delay= master_delay;
+ /* added value of master_delay */
+ init_intvar_from_file(&delay, &mi->file, master_delay))
+extern uint32 master_delay;
Perhaps it's the first step in something you're planning to submit?
Since the patch came with no test, I took the time to create one.
Here's my first try of a test file.
I welcome ideas for new tests or implementations of the ideas at the
end. I want to prove that there are no bugs or unexpected behavior
in adding this feature. Help!
