---------------------------------------------------------
Here are the sanity checks and tests done (all on v4.15-rc9):
- compiled natively on x86_64
- cross-compiled for ARCH=arm64 (NUMA=y/n), ARCH=tile (for which kbuild
test robot reported a build failure with [PATCH v1])
- no new issues reported by:
- checkpatch --strict
- make W=1
- make CHECK="/path/to/smatch -p=kernel --two-passes --spammy" C=2 mm/
- make C=2 CF="-D__CHECK_ENDIAN__" -Wunused-function mm/
- cppcheck --force --enable=all --inconclusive mm/
- re-tested on H3ULCB and confirmed the same behavior as with [PATCH v2]
If no other comments, I will submit [PATCH v3] in the next days.
Many thanks!
Best regards,
Eugeniu,
