From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@xxxxxx> MSVC complains about this with `-Wall`, which can be taken as a sign that this is indeed a real bug. The symptom is: C4146: unary minus operator applied to unsigned type, result still unsigned Let's avoid this warning in the minimal way, e.g. writing `-1 - <unsigned value>` instead of `-<unsigned value> - 1`. Note that the change in the `estimate_cache_size()` function is needed because MSVC considers the "return type" of the `sizeof()` operator to be `size_t`, i.e. unsigned, and therefore it cannot be negated using the unary minus operator. Even worse, that arithmetic is doing extra work, in vain. We want to calculate the entry extra cache size as the difference between the size of the `cache_entry` structure minus the size of the `ondisk_cache_entry` structure, padded to the appropriate alignment boundary. To that end, we start by assigning that difference to the `per_entry` variable, and then abuse the `len` parameter of the `align_padding_size()` macro to take the negative size of the ondisk entry size. Essentially, we try to avoid passing the already calculated difference to that macro by passing the operands of that difference instead, when the macro expects operands of an addition: #define align_padding_size(size, len) \ ((size + (len) + 8) & ~7) - (size + len) Currently, we pass A and -B to that macro instead of passing A - B and 0, where A - B is already stored in the `per_entry` variable, ready to be used. This is neither necessary, nor intuitive. Let's fix this, and have code that is both easier to read and that also does not trigger MSVC's warning.
