wrt:
+ v2pr_info("read %u bytes from userspace <\n%s>\n", len, tmpbuf);
Im getting what appears to be conflicting warnings
about %u vs unsigned int (sometimes unsigned long int)
depending upon platform ??
Ive now tried both %lu and %u
What have I missed ?

Hint: What size is a size_t on a 32 bit platform, and on a 64 bit platform?

Or you use - like everyone else - "%zu" as format
specifier.
Read `man 3 printf` for more - the Kernel's printk
implements almost all of it.

For me it was - ages ago;-) - more like "never worked
on portability between 32bit and 64bit" ....

No one cares which MUA you use in whatever way - the email
should be readable.
And top-posting is exactly the "please don't do that" and produces
the full-quote below.
