Following commit caused build failures on stable-rc 5.4 and 5.10.
ext4: fix to check return value of freeze_bdev() in ext4_shutdown()
commit c4d13222afd8a64bf11bc7ec68645496ee8b54b9 upstream.
fs/ext4/ioctl.c:595:7: error: incompatible pointer to integer
conversion assigning to 'int' from 'struct super_block *'
[-Wint-conversion]
ret = freeze_bdev(sb->s_bdev);
^ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1 error generated.
I have seen this error too in 5.4.y build.
Just more information about this.
In 5.4.y:
struct super_block *freeze_bdev(struct block_device *bdev)
{
...
}
In 5.15.y
int freeze_bdev(struct block_device *bdev)
{
...
}
This changed in this commit which is in 5.11-rc1,(not in 5.4.y and 5.10.y)
Commit info:
commit-id : 040f04bd2e825f1d80b14a0e0ac3d830339eb779
subject : fs: simplify freeze_bdev/thaw_bdev
Thanks,
