The above code converts 'val' twice to an integer: a first time by
calling kstrtou32() and a second time by calling param_set_int().
Please remove one of the two string-to-integer conversions, e.g. by
changing "param_set_int(val, kp)" into "uic_cmd_timeout = n" or
*(unsigned int *)kp->arg = n".
Hi Bart,
My understanding is that in the kstrtou32() function, the the result of
the conversion is written to the third parameter only which is '&n' in
this case. 'val' does not get updated (and it cannot be updated because
of its 'const' type). Please correct me if I am wrong.
Thanks, Bao
Thanks,
Bart.
