The patch titled Subject: samples/kretprobe: fix the wrong type has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was samples-kretprobe-fix-the-wrong-type.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Huang Shijie <shijie.huang@xxxxxxx> Subject: samples/kretprobe: fix the wrong type The regs_return_value() returns "unsigned long" or "long" value. But the retval is int type now, it may cause overflow, the log may becomes: ................. [ 2911.078869] do_brk returned -2003877888 and took 4620 ns to execute ................ This patch converts the retval to "unsigned long" type, and fixes the overflow issue.
