Note that * %VERIFY_WRITE is a superset of %VERIFY_READ - if it is safe * to write to a block, it is always safe to read from it. * @addr: User space pointer to start of block to check * @size: Size of block to check */ -Chris -- Chris Wilson, Intel Open Source Technology Centre -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
