Dear all,
I pulled out latest source from Linus's git tree. During compilation of
smbfs/cache.c in line 148 I got a warning stating
warning: passing argument 1 of ‘__constant_memcpy’ discards qualifiers
from pointer target type
This was in function smb_fill_cache where memcpy is being used as following:
memcpy((char *) newdent->d_name.name, qname->name,
newdent->d_name.len);
d_name is of type struct qstr and in qstr name is defined as const
unsigned char *.
struct qstr {
unsigned int hash;
unsigned int len;
const unsigned char *name;
};
So this type cast is wrong.
Is it ok to fix this by defineing name as unsigned char * rather than as
const unsigned char *?
Regards
