The patch titled Subject: buffer: cast block to loff_t before shifting it has been added to the -mm mm-unstable branch. Its filename is buffer-cast-block-to-loff_t-before-shifting-it.patch This patch will shortly appear at https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/25-new.git/tree/patches/buffer-cast-block-to-loff_t-before-shifting-it.patch This patch will later appear in the mm-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: "Matthew Wilcox (Oracle)" <willy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: buffer: cast block to loff_t before shifting it Date: Thu, 9 Nov 2023 21:06:05 +0000 While sector_t is always defined as a u64 today, that hasn't always been the case and it might not always be the same size as loff_t in the future.
