Still not in kernel. Do you know reason why it so?
It was just for discussion and I didn't sign or push it to anyone else. What's slightly funny is how far back dma_addr_t printk discussions go. http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0202.1/1221.html Anyway, if you think you're going to do a lot of transforms of printk("%x", dma_addr_t) with or without (unsigned long long) or (u64) casts, I'll submit a signed patch to Andrew. Let me know. In an aside for Julia Lawall (added to cc's), I tried to do a spatch grep for dma_addr_t (and phys_addr_t) types that were cast to (unsigned long) or (u64) but I was unsuccessful. Is there something else I need to do? $ cat dma_addr_t.cocci @@ dma_addr_t foo; @@ * (unsigned long long)foo; $ cat t.c #include <linux/types.h> #include <linux/printk.h> int foo(dma_addr_t a) { printk("test: %llx\n", (unsigned long long)a); } $ spatch --all-includes --local-includes -I include/ --sp-file dma_addr_t.cocci t.c init_defs_builtins: /usr/local/share/coccinelle/standard.h HANDLING: t.c $ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
