Dear Jakub, Sorry for some typo in previous reply, fix it here. All these warning lines share a similar semantics: delay_val |= FIELD_PREP(xxx, !!val); and, should come from the expansion of FIELD_PREP in include/linux/bitfiled.h: FIELD _PREP --> __BF_FILED_CHECK --> "~((_mask) >> __bf_shf(_mask)) & (_val) : 0," =============================================================== __BF_FILED_CHECK { ... BUILD_BUG_ON_MSG(__builtin_constant_p(_val) ? \ ~((_mask) >> __bf_shf(_mask)) & (_val) : 0, \ _pfx "value too large for the field"); \ ... =============================================================== Should I fix it by converting delay_val |= FIELD_PREP(ETH_DLY_TXC_ENABLE, !!mac_delay->tx_delay); to en_val = !!mac_delay->tx_delay; delay_val |= FIELD_PREP(ETH_DLY_TXC_ENABLE, en_val); or other suggestions for these warnings?
