From: Ammar Faizi <ammarfaizi2@xxxxxxxxxxx> Sometimes the compiler accepts (struct sockaddr_in *) to be passed in to (struct sockaddr *) without a cast. But not all compilers agree with that. Building with clang 13.0.1 yields the following error: error: incompatible pointer types passing 'struct sockaddr_in *' to \ parameter of type 'struct sockaddr *' [-Werror,-Wincompatible-pointer-types] Explicitly cast the pointer to (struct sockaddr *) to avoid this error.
