Name

bitmap_parse_user —

Synopsis

int bitmap_parse_user (const char __user *  ubuf,
 unsigned int  ulen,
 unsigned long *  maskp,
 int  nmaskbits);

Arguments

ubuf

pointer to user buffer containing string.

ulen

buffer size in bytes. If string is smaller than this then it must be terminated with a \0.

maskp

pointer to bitmap array that will contain result.

nmaskbits

size of bitmap, in bits.

Description

Wrapper for __bitmap_parse, providing it with user buffer.

We cannot have this as an inline function in bitmap.h because it needs linux/uaccess.h to get the access_ok declaration and this causes cyclic dependencies.
