[PATCH] process_madvise.2: SYNOPSIS: Fix prototype parameter type

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The type of vlen is 'size_t', and not 'unsigned int'.  Fix it.

......

$ grep_syscall process_madvise
mm/madvise.c:1161:
SYSCALL_DEFINE5(process_madvise, int, pidfd, const struct iovec __user *, vec,
		size_t, vlen, int, behavior, unsigned int, flags)
include/linux/syscalls.h:887:
asmlinkage long sys_process_madvise(int pidfd, const struct iovec __user *vec,
			size_t vlen, int behavior, unsigned int flags);

function grep_syscall()
{
	if ! [ -v 1 ]; then
		>&2 echo "Usage: ${FUNCNAME[0]} <syscall>";
		return ${EX_USAGE};
	fi

	find * -type f \
	|grep '\.c$' \
	|sort -V \
	|xargs pcregrep -Mn "(?s)^\w*SYSCALL_DEFINE.\(${1},.*?\)" \
	|sed -E 's/^[^:]+:[0-9]+:/&\n/';

	find * -type f \
	|grep '\.[ch]$' \
	|sort -V \
	|xargs pcregrep -Mn "(?s)^asmlinkage\s+[\w\s]+\**sys_${1}\s*\(.*?\)" \
	|sed -E 's/^[^:]+:[0-9]+:/&\n/';
}
