It seems like a good way of both documenting and silencing compiler warnings. But I'm open to other suggestions.The normal kernel build doesn't generate warnings for unused function parameters because there are alot of false positives, IIRC. So, seems weird to see things like this.quoted

Can we have negative depth? Should it be unsigned?As per the documentation added in this patch: * @pte_hole: if set, called for each hole at all levels, * depth is -1 if not known, 0:PGD, 1:P4D, 2:PUD, 3:PMD * 4:PTE. Any folded depths (where PTRS_PER_P?D is equal * to 1) are skipped. So it's signed to allow "-1" in the cases where pte_hole is called without knowing the actual depth. This is used in the function walk_page_test() because it don't walk the actual page tables, but is called on a VMA instead. This means that there may not be a single depth for the range provided.So are the depth values below OK? I would have expected -1 by this definition
Good spot - that indeed was very sloppy of me. In these cases the value is ignored, but -1 would indeed have been a better value to use. I'll fix that up. Thanks, Steve
