[PATCH v15 21/26] vfio: Avoid repeated user pointer cast in vfio_device_fops_unl_ioctl()

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

 



This adds a local variable to store the user pointer cast result from arg.
It avoids the repeated casts in the code when more ioctls are added.
