From 58ac93e4f2e4b15beffdf0e3749b7fea3208ef66 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nicholas Mc Guire Date: Fri, 15 May 2015 21:05:42 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] sched: Fix function declaration return type mismatch static code checking was unhappy with: ./kernel/sched/fair.c:162 WARNING: return of wrong type int != unsigned int get_update_sysctl_factor() is declared to return int but is currently returning an unsigned int. The first few preprocessed lines are: static int get_update_sysctl_factor(void) { unsigned int cpus = ({ int __min1 = (cpumask_weight(cpu_online_mask)); int __min2 = (8); __min1 < __min2 ? __min1: __min2; }); unsigned int factor; The type used by min_t() should be 'unsigned int' and the return type of get_update_sysctl_factor() should also be 'unsigned int' as its call-site update_sysctl() is expecting 'unsigned int' and the values utilizing: 'factor' 'sysctl_sched_min_granularity' 'sched_nr_latency' 'sysctl_sched_wakeup_granularity' ... are also all 'unsigned int', plus cpumask_weight() is also returning 'unsigned int'. So the natural type to use around here is 'unsigned int'. ( Patch was compile tested with x86_64_defconfig + CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG=y and the changed sections in kernel/sched/fair.i were reviewed. ) Signed-off-by: Nicholas Mc Guire [ Improved the changelog a bit. ] Cc: H.
