sorry for wrong question, I really meet memory address truncated issue,
when use V4L2 kernel APIs.
in a kernel thread created by kernel_thread()
I vm_mmap a shmem_file to addr: 00007ffff7fa8000
and queue it to V4L2, after dequeue it, and I find the address is
truncated to 00000000f7fa8000
I use __u64 {aka long long unsigned int} to save address, and I find
userptr is unsigned long, wrongly think it as "data truncated"
and a lot of __u32 in this structure.
everything works fine, but I still don't understand why high 32bit be
0..
BR.
