Re: [PATCH 6.1 063/591] evm: Complete description of evm_inode_setattr()

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

 



Hi Greg,

To clarify the kernel test robot report:

[stable:linux-6.1.y 7217/8698] security/integrity/evm/evm_main.c:788:
warning: Excess function parameter 'idmap' description in
'evm_inode_setattr'

Commit b1de86d4248b added two missing kernel-doc function arguments. 
Both changes should be backported to 6.3, but then only "* @attr: iattr
structure containing the new file attributes" should be backported.

thanks,

Mimi
