The patch titled Subject: mm/hmm: convert to use vm_fault_t has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is mm-hmm-convert-to-use-vm_fault_t.patch This patch should soon appear at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/mm-hmm-convert-to-use-vm_fault_t.patch and later at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/mm-hmm-convert-to-use-vm_fault_t.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/process/submit-checklist.rst when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next and is updated there every 3-4 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Souptick Joarder <jrdr.linux@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: mm/hmm: convert to use vm_fault_t convert to use vm_fault_t type as return type for fault handler. kbuild reported warning during testing of *mm-create-the-new-vm_fault_t-type.patch* available in below link - https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10752741/ [auto build test WARNING on linus/master] [also build test WARNING on v5.0-rc1 next-20190109] [if your patch is applied to the wrong git tree, please drop us a note to help improve the system] kernel/memremap.c:46:34: warning: incorrect type in return expression (different base types) kernel/memremap.c:46:34: expected restricted vm_fault_t kernel/memremap.c:46:34: got int This patch has fixed the warnings and also hmm_devmem_fault() is converted to return vm_fault_t to avoid further warnings.
