Hi Kumar Amit,

 

These function are define in

 

 

 

 

The ## (double number sign) operator concatenates two tokens in a macro invocation (text and/or arguments) given in a macro definition

 

 

/*
 * Emit the buffer bitops functions.   Note that there are also functions
 * of the form "mark_buffer_foo()".  These are higher-level functions which
 * do something in addition to setting a b_state bit.

BUFFER_FNS(Uptodate, uptodate)
BUFFER_FNS(Dirty, dirty)
TAS_BUFFER_FNS(Dirty, dirty)
BUFFER_FNS(Lock, locked)
BUFFER_FNS(Req, req)
TAS_BUFFER_FNS(Req, req)
BUFFER_FNS(Mapped, mapped)
BUFFER_FNS(New, new)
BUFFER_FNS(Async_Read, async_read)
BUFFER_FNS(Async_Write, async_write)
BUFFER_FNS(Delay, delay)
BUFFER_FNS(Boundary, boundary)
BUFFER_FNS(Write_EIO, write_io_error)
BUFFER_FNS(Unwritten, unwritten)
BUFFER_FNS(Meta, meta)
BUFFER_FNS(Prio, prio)

These function get expanded before we compile the kernel.
