A 32-bit version of mcelog issuing ioctls on /dev/mcelog causes errors like the following: MCE_GET_RECORD_LEN: Inappropriate ioctl for device This is due to a missing compat_ioctl callback. Assign to it compat_ptr_ioctl() as a generic implementation of the .compat_ioctl file operation to ioctl functions that either ignore the argument or pass a pointer to a compatible data type.

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.
