The patch titled uml: use 64-bits for block size on x86_64 has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is uml-use-64-bits-for-block-size-on-x86_64.patch *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: uml: use 64-bits for block size on x86_64 From: Jeff Dike <jdike@xxxxxxxxxxx> The BLKGETSIZE ioctl expects a pointer to a long, os_file_size was providing an int. Therefore, ubd access to host block devices caused a segmentation fault on 64 bits systems.
