Message-ID: <20170706091133.GK10672@ZenIV.linux.org.uk> (raw)
Several alpha osf_sys.c uaccess cleanups - getdomainname() had
insane byte-by-byte copying of string to userland (instead of strnlen +
copy_to_user) plus yet another compat variant of timeval/itimerval with
associated copyin/copyout primitives.
The following changes since commit 92ebce5ac55dba258c608248dddf59eca3f7f514:
osf_wait4: switch to kernel_wait4() (2017-05-21 13:16:26 -0400)
