Subject: [patch 14/15] fs/fs-writeback.c: adjust dirtytime_interval_handler definition to match prototype
Date: Fri, 18 Sep 2020 21:20:39 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200919042039.taXFWO2ve%akpm@linux-foundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200918211925.7e97f0ef63d92f5cfe5ccbc5@linux-foundation.org>

Subject: fs/fs-writeback.c: adjust dirtytime_interval_handler definition to match prototype
Commit 32927393dc1c ("sysctl: pass kernel pointers to ->proc_handler")
changed ctl_table.proc_handler to take a kernel pointer. Adjust the
definition of dirtytime_interval_handler to match its prototype in
linux/writeback.h which fixes the following sparse error/warning:
fs/fs-writeback.c:2189:50: warning: incorrect type in argument 3 (different address spaces)
fs/fs-writeback.c:2189:50: expected void *
fs/fs-writeback.c:2189:50: got void [noderef] __user *buffer
fs/fs-writeback.c:2184:5: error: symbol 'dirtytime_interval_handler' redeclared with different type (incompatible argument 3 (different address spaces)):
fs/fs-writeback.c:2184:5: int extern [addressable] [signed] [toplevel] dirtytime_interval_handler( ... )
fs/fs-writeback.c: note: in included file:
./include/linux/writeback.h:374:5: note: previously declared as:
./include/linux/writeback.h:374:5: int extern [addressable] [signed] [toplevel] dirtytime_interval_handler( ... )
