Its filename is lz4-fix-compression-decompression-signedness-mismatch.patch This patch should soon appear at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/lz4-fix-compression-decompression-signedness-mismatch.patch and later at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/lz4-fix-compression-decompression-signedness-mismatch.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/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next and is updated there every 3-4 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Sergey Senozhatsky <sergey.senozhatsky@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: lz4: fix compression/decompression signedness mismatch LZ4 compression and decompression functions require different in signedness input/output parameters: unsigned char for compression and signed char for decompression. Change decompression API to require "(const) unsigned char *".
