Exactly. For me Skip and HoleSize have clear meaning. So your suggestion
is to have: SetSkip and GetSkip? Well, I don't like it that much but if
that's the only thing that should prevent this from merging ...
Also, as I've said earlier, I'm gonna send v2 without any name change
for the time being. As you've correctly noticed, a lot of functions, RPC
calls, and other stuff have their name derived from current naming.
Therefore changing that would be a non-trivial amount of work and
therefore I'd like to do it just once. After we have a clear agreement
on the naming.
Also, now that we seem to be using Reviewed-by tags, should I include
those in my commit messages for v2? I mean, you've reviewed patches
00-30. And you'll definitely deserve the tag. But what I'm asking is if
I should put it there already for v2 or before pushing the patches.
To extend my thinking further, review is not the same as ACK. So
Reviewed-by should include all the reviewers even though just one of
them gave ACK? Or if a patch is respin in version X, should it include
all the past reviewers? So many questions and not many answers.

AFAIC the Reviewed-By morphed from the Tested-By discussion which also
had a variant Signed-Off-By discussion. I don't think there's a clear
consensus. IDC whether a R-b tag is attributed or not. We don't seem to
have group norms or rules for that yet. Part of me feels though that an
R-B tag would be "functionally equivalent" to an ACK - so if there isn't
an ACK, then should there by an R-B even though clearly it was reviewed.
I don't keep track of "other" norms w/r/t to all these tags...
As for the function names... Well that's the bugger. On one hand this
series started as an RFC long before the 'new' naming rules were put in
place, so perhaps there's an invokable "grandfather clause" that allows
you to bypass the new naming rules. On the other hand, we should try to
follow the group rules/norms for naming functions for any patches. I'm
fine going with group consensus on this if that's even a possible
achievement,
IOW: is there anyone else reading this series that would like to chime
in with their opinion? How does one bump up the discussion to get such
opinion in the event no one's reading. You're fortunate to at least sit
near a few other such opinionated people ;-). I can "self translate" the
naming scheme here into what I was thinking about too.
