Subject: [PATCH 2/5] vmsplice: change argument type back to "int"
Date: Sat, 6 Jun 2026 06:10:28 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260606061031.3744880-3-safinaskar@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260606061031.3744880-1-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.
