With older gcc and 64-bit size_t, the compiler issues a real warning: rpc/virnetserverservice.c:277: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules [-Wstrict-aliasing] Introduced in commit 0cc79255. Depending on machine endianness, this warning represents a real bug that could mis-interpret the value by a factor of 2^32. I don't know why newer gcc didn't bother to warn. * src/rpc/virnetserverservice.c (virNetServerServiceNewPostExecRestart): Use temporary instead. --- src/rpc/virnetserverservice.c | 5 +++-- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/rpc/virnetserverservice.c b/src/rpc/virnetserverservice.c index 8ac523c..31a9424 100644 --- a/src/rpc/virnetserverservice.c +++ b/src/rpc/virnetserverservice.c @@ -1,7 +1,7 @@ /* * virnetserverservice.c: generic network RPC server service * - * Copyright (C) 2006-2011 Red Hat, Inc. + * Copyright (C) 2006-2012 Red Hat, Inc. * Copyright (C) 2006 Daniel P.
