Hi,
Is it really true that qemud/remote_protocol.{c,h} are created by rpcgen? If so, why dont we have them created at compile time? I still see them in the source code.
I modified remote_protocol.x a bit, and when recompiling, remote_protocol.{c,h} are not reflected at all. So it is expected that developers must recompile with rpcgen themself??
I looked again, and see that we can generate remote_protocol.c from rpcgen. Currently it seems remote_protocol.c is hacked a bit to remove some unused stack variables? Why do we need to do such a thing, while compiler can optimize that for us? So I guess it is better to have rpcgen does all the job, and leave everything as it is. We can rename remote_protocol_xdr.c to remote_protocol.c if you still insist that (but I see no good reason to do so). Thanks, Jun
