Subject: [PATCH 1/3] fanotify: Ensure consistent variable type for response
Date: Wed, 30 Sep 2020 12:12:24 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <12617626.uLZWGnKmhe@x2> (raw)

The user space API for the response variable is __u32. This patch makes
sure that the whole path through the kernel uses __u32 so that there is
no sign extension or truncation of the user space response.
