Ok, but the following code in that file should be caught, right:
static ssize_t partition_handle_show(struct device *dev,
struct device_attribute *attr,
char *buf) {
struct visor_device *vdev = to_visor_device(dev);
u64 handle = visorchannel_get_clientpartition(vdev->visorchannel);
return sprintf(buf, "0x%llx\n", handle);
}
static DEVICE_ATTR_RO(partition_handle);
The initial { is in the wrong place...
