The patch titled Subject: parisc: ptrace: user_regset_copyin_ignore() always returns 0 has been added to the -mm mm-nonmm-unstable branch. Its filename is parisc-ptrace-user_regset_copyin_ignore-always-returns-0.patch This patch will shortly appear at https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/25-new.git/tree/patches/parisc-ptrace-user_regset_copyin_ignore-always-returns-0.patch This patch will later appear in the mm-nonmm-unstable branch at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm 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 via the mm-everything branch at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm and is updated there every 2-3 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Sergey Shtylyov <s.shtylyov@xxxxxx> Subject: parisc: ptrace: user_regset_copyin_ignore() always returns 0 Date: Sat, 15 Oct 2022 00:22:31 +0300 user_regset_copyin_ignore() always returns 0, so checking its result seems pointless -- don't do this anymore...
