Hi all,
After merging the ipmi tree, today's linux-next build (powerpc
allyesconfig) failed like this:
drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_msghandler.c: In function 'free_user_work':
drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_msghandler.c:1156:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'vfree'; did you mean 'kvfree'? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
1156 | vfree(user);
| ^~~~~
| kvfree
drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_msghandler.c: In function 'ipmi_create_user':
drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_msghandler.c:1188:13: error: implicit declaration of function 'vzalloc'; did you mean 'kvzalloc'? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
1188 | new_user = vzalloc(sizeof(*new_user));
| ^~~~~~~
| kvzalloc
drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_msghandler.c:1188:11: warning: assignment to 'struct ipmi_user *' from 'int' makes pointer from integer without a cast [-Wint-conversion]
1188 | new_user = vzalloc(sizeof(*new_user));
| ^
