Subject: [PATCH] do_mounts.c ioctl fix
Date: Sat, 23 Nov 2002 01:52:40 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20021123015240.B30919@linux-mips.org> (raw)
Hi Linus,
init/do_mounts.c is using the BLKGETSIZE ioctl which expects a pointer to
an unsigned long but actually it passes a pointer to an int which of
course is blowing up on 64-bit systems.
