Commit 32927393dc1c ("sysctl: pass kernel pointers to ->proc_handler") changed ctl_table.proc_handler to take a kernel pointer. Adjust the definition of dirtytime_interval_handler to match its prototype in linux/writeback.h which fixes the following sparse error/warning: fs/fs-writeback.c:2189:50: warning: incorrect type in argument 3 (different address spaces) fs/fs-writeback.c:2189:50: expected void * fs/fs-writeback.c:2189:50: got void [noderef] __user *buffer fs/fs-writeback.c:2184:5: error: symbol 'dirtytime_interval_handler' redeclared with different type (incompatible argument 3 (different address spaces)): fs/fs-writeback.c:2184:5: int extern [addressable] [signed] [toplevel] dirtytime_interval_handler( ... ) fs/fs-writeback.c: note: in included file: ./include/linux/writeback.h:374:5: note: previously declared as: ./include/linux/writeback.h:374:5: int extern [addressable] [signed] [toplevel] dirtytime_interval_handler( ... ) Fixes: 32927393dc1c ("sysctl: pass kernel pointers to ->proc_handler") Cc: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Tobias Klauser <tklauser@distanz.ch> --- fs/fs-writeback.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-)
