Hi! While cleaning up UML's uaccess code I've noticed that not a single architecture is using VERIFY_READ/WRITE in access_ok(). One exception is UML, it uses the access type in one check which is in vain anyways. Also asm-generic/uaccess.h drops the type parameter silently. Why do we still carry it around? Is it because we want it for some future architecture which can benefit from it or just because nobody cared enough to do a tree-wide cleanup? I fear it is the latter... ;) Thanks, //richard -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-arch" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
