[PATCH v5 0/6] compat: remove compat_alloc_user_space

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

 



From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx>

Going through compat_alloc_user_space() to convert indirect system call
arguments tends to add complexity compared to handling the native and
compat logic in the same code.

Out of the other remaining callers, the linux-media series went into
v5.14, and the network ioctl handling is now fixed in net-next, so
these are the last remaining users, and I now include the final
patch to remove the definitions as well.

Since these patches are now all that remains, it would be nice to
merge it all through Andrew's Linux-mm tree, which is already based
on top of linux-next.
