The variable 'package_size' is an unsigned long, and should be printed out using '%lu', not '%zd' (that would be for a size_t). Yes, on many architectures (including x86-64), 'size_t' is in fact the same type as 'long', but that's a fairly random architecture definition, and on some platforms 'size_t' is in fact 'int' rather than 'long'. That is the case on traditional 32-bit x86. Yes, both types are the exact same 32-bit size, and it would all print out perfectly correctly, but '%zd' ends up still being wrong. And we can't make 'package_size' be a 'size_t', because we get the actual value using efivar_entry_get() that takes a pointer to an 'unsigned long'. So '%lu' it is. This fixes two of the i386 allmodconfig build warnings (that is now an error due to -Werror). Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
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.
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.
