From: zijun_hu <zijun...@htc.com> macro PAGE_ALIGNED() is prone to cause error because it doesn't follow convention to parenthesize parameter @addr within macro body, for example unsigned long *ptr = kmalloc(...); PAGE_ALIGNED(ptr + 16); for the left parameter of macro IS_ALIGNED(), (unsigned long)(ptr + 16) is desired but the actual one is (unsigned long)ptr + 16
it is fixed by simply canonicalizing macro PAGE_ALIGNED() definition Signed-off-by: zijun_hu <zijun...@htc.com> --- include/linux/mm.h | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/include/linux/mm.h b/include/linux/mm.h index ef815b9cd426..ec6818631635 100644 --- a/include/linux/mm.h +++ b/include/linux/mm.h @@ -126,7 +126,7 @@ extern int overcommit_kbytes_handler(struct ctl_table *, int, void __user *, #define PAGE_ALIGN(addr) ALIGN(addr, PAGE_SIZE) /* test whether an address (unsigned long or pointer) is aligned to PAGE_SIZE */ -#define PAGE_ALIGNED(addr) IS_ALIGNED((unsigned long)addr, PAGE_SIZE) +#define PAGE_ALIGNED(addr) IS_ALIGNED((unsigned long)(addr), PAGE_SIZE) /* * Linux kernel virtual memory manager primitives. -- 1.9.1
