I've been building with mingw to make sure that my gnulib-upgrade-and-extend
patch doesn't break anything and found some compiler warnings.
I fixed most of them, but this one is ugly:
../qemud/remote_protocol.c:317: warning: assignment from incompatible pointer type
../qemud/remote_protocol.c:346: warning: assignment from incompatible pointer type
That's due to the fact that the mingw xdr.h header,
/usr/i686-pc-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/include/rpc/xdr.h, defines this
#define XDR_INLINE(xdrs, len) \
(*(xdrs)->x_ops->x_inline)(xdrs, len)
and has an x_inline member of type long*,
typedef struct {
enum xdr_op x_op; /* operation; fast additional param */
struct xdr_ops {
bool_t (*x_getlong)(); /* get a long from underlying stream */
bool_t (*x_putlong)(); /* put a long to " */
bool_t (*x_getbytes)();/* get some bytes from " */
bool_t (*x_putbytes)();/* put some bytes to " */
u_int (*x_getpostn)();/* returns bytes off from beginning */
bool_t (*x_setpostn)();/* lets you reposition the stream */
long * (*x_inline)(); /* buf quick ptr to buffered data */
while we're used to one with type matching buf: int32_t*:
If you're serious about getting rid of warnings even on mingw,
here's one approach:

Better would be to fix the decl in xdr.h, but probably not feasible.
Alternatively, redefine XDR_INLINE for mingw, adding the void* cast in that.
But that means peeking inside (and copying) the current definition,
so I prefer the above.
So I'm leaning towards using the patch above.
