Jmmahler,
Thank you very much for your review and comments based on v15 patches.
I have modified all points based on your comments and generate this v16 patches.
Could you please help review again when have time.
By the way, since gmail is blocked again in my side, so I use private email
dudlx@xxxxxxxxxxx instead to send these patches manually.
Thanks,
Dudley
