Subject: [PATCH] RDMA/core: remove extraneous dummy helper functions
Date: Tue, 19 May 2026 22:36:22 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260519203629.1341667-1-arnd@kernel.org> (raw)
From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
The _ib_copy_validate_udata_in() and _ib_respond_udata() functions
are now defined unconditionally, but there is still a dummy helper
definition for them when CONFIG_INFINIBAND_USER_ACCESS is disabled,
leading to a build failure:
drivers/infiniband/core/ib_core_uverbs.c:433:5: error: redefinition of '_ib_copy_validate_udata_in'
433 | int _ib_copy_validate_udata_in(struct ib_udata *udata, void *req,
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

from drivers/infiniband/core/ib_core_uverbs.c:10:

968 | static inline int _ib_respond_udata(struct ib_udata *udata, const void *src,
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Remove the now incorrect dummy helpers and move the declarations
out of the #ifdef block.
Fixes: 65b044cee9fb ("RDMA/core: Move the _ib_copy_validate_udata* functions to ib_core_uverbs")
