[PATCH 4.9 136/145] binfmt_elf: compat: avoid unused function warning

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx>

When CONFIG_ELF_CORE is disabled, we get a harmless warning in the compat
version of binfmt_elf:

fs/compat_binfmt_elf.c:58:13: error: 'cputime_to_compat_timeval' defined but not used [-Werror=unused-function]

This was addressed in mainline Linux as part of a larger rework with commit
cd19c364b313 ("fs/binfmt: Convert obsolete cputime type to nsecs").

For 4.9 and earlier, this just shuts up the warning by adding an #ifdef
around the function definition.
