Sorry, but if I cd into the "linux" directory and run the command
# git apply -v patch2
the result is that the patch cannot be applied correctly:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Controllo della patch block/blk-mq.c in corso...
error: durante la ricerca per:
?
static blk_qc_t blk_mq_make_request(struct request_queue *q, struct bio *bio)?
{?
const int is_sync = op_is_sync(bio->bi_opf);?
const int is_flush_fua = op_is_flush(bio->bi_opf);?
struct blk_mq_alloc_data data = { .flags = 0};?
struct request *rq;?
error: patch non riuscita: block/blk-mq.c:1931
error: block/blk-mq.c: la patch non si applica correttamente
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The "linux" directory is the one generated by a fresh git clone:
git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks, and bye
Andrea
