The patch titled Subject: tracing: remove use of seq_printf return value has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is tracing-remove-use-of-seq_printf-return-value.patch This patch should soon appear at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/tracing-remove-use-of-seq_printf-return-value.patch and later at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/tracing-remove-use-of-seq_printf-return-value.patch Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next and is updated there every 3-4 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Joe Perches <joe@xxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: tracing: remove use of seq_printf return value The seq_printf return value, because it's frequently misused, will eventually be converted to void.
