From 9a71af2c3627b379b7c31917a7f6ee0d29bc559b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rusty Russell Date: Fri, 12 Jun 2009 21:46:53 -0600 Subject: module_param: invbool should take a 'bool', not an 'int' It takes an 'int' for historical reasons, and there are only two users: simply switch it over to bool. The other user (uvesafb.c) will get a (harmless-on-x86) warning until the next patch is applied.

Since the perm field was 32 bits and only needs 16, we don't add bloat.

Impact: API cleanup For historical reasons, 'bool' parameters must be an int, not a bool. But there are around 600 users, so a conversion seems like useless churn. So we use __same_type() to distinguish, and handle both cases.
