Subject: umode_t breakage in exported kernel headers
Date: Mon, 19 Mar 2012 16:01:53 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <201203191601.55668.vapier@gentoo.org> (raw)
[-- Attachment #1: Type: Text/Plain, Size: 427 bytes --]
commit 0583fcc96bb117763c0fa74c123573c0112dec65 moved umode_t out of the
exported headers space (via the arches' asm/types.h) and into __KERNEL__
specific linux/types.h. this breaks the exported linux/ext2_fs.h
ext2_mask_flags function which uses that type. that func appears to be the
only one exported that utilizes umode_t.
should ext2_mask_flags be updated to take a __kernel_mode_t as its first arg ?
