Subject: [PATCH v2 2/7] vmsplice: change argument type back to "int"
Date: Thu, 25 Jun 2026 08:34:04 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260625083409.3769242-3-safinaskar@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260625083409.3769242-1-safinaskar@gmail.com>
My previous vmsplice patchset changed vmsplice argument from
"int" to "unsigned long". This may cause problems, so let's
change it back.
