sparse generates the following warning: include/linux/prandom.h:114:45: sparse: sparse: cast truncates bits from constant value This is because the 64-bit seed value is manipulated and then placed in a u32, causing an implicit cast and truncation. A forced cast to u32 doesn't prevent this warning, which is reasonable because a typecast doesn't prove that truncation was expected. Logical-AND the value with 0xffffffff to make explicit that truncation to 32-bit is intended.

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.
