Subject: [PATCH] Define a fixed elementary logic type
Date: Fri, 1 Apr 2011 17:44:23 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <BANLkTimKwW7d2x1RDCPnu1LHMBKHy3PYgw@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Unfortunately, my father's elementary logic type is incomplete. This patch
introduces the correct type with a plan to transition the kernel over to
it and to deprecate the "bool" type in the v3.0 timeframe.
