SubjectRe: [PATCH v5 2/2] arm64: KVM: export the capability to set guest SError syndrome
From
Date
Hi Dongjiu Geng,

This patch doesn't apply on v4.18-rc2.

Documentation/virtual/kvm/api.txt already has a 8.18 section. I guess you based
this on v4.17.

For posting patches, please use the latest 'rc' from Linus' tree, (or the
maintainer's tree listed in MAINTAINERS for the tree you are targeting if the
maintainer has started to pick up patches).


Thanks,

James
