The hcall_exit() tracepoint has retval defined as unsigned long. That leads to humours results like: bash-3686 [009] d..2 854.134094: hcall_entry: opcode=24 bash-3686 [009] d..2 854.134095: hcall_exit: opcode=24 retval=18446744073709551609 It's normal for some hcalls to return negative values, displaying them as unsigned isn't very helpful. So change it to signed. bash-3711 [001] d..2 471.691008: hcall_entry: opcode=24 bash-3711 [001] d..2 471.691008: hcall_exit: opcode=24 retval=-7 Which can be more easily compared to H_NOT_FOUND in hvcall.h Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Acked-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Tested-by: Ravi Bangoria <ravi.bangoria@linux.ibm.com>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
