Subject: [PATCH] creds: suppress warning in get_cred
Date: Mon, 19 Jan 2009 21:10:31 +1100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090119211031.934b4c19.sfr@canb.auug.org.au> (raw)
This is the usual way to force a conversion from a const pointer to a
non-const one and gets rid of this warning:
include/linux/cred.h: In function 'get_cred':
include/linux/cred.h:188: warning: passing argument 1 of 'get_new_cred' discards qualifiers from pointer target type
