Clang generate quite a few of those warnings. drivers/acpi/scan.c:759:28: warning: arithmetic on a null pointer treated as a cast from integer to pointer is a GNU extension [-Wnull-pointer-arithmetic] status = acpi_get_handle(ACPI_ROOT_OBJECT, obj->string.pointer, ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ./include/acpi/actypes.h:458:56: note: expanded from macro 'ACPI_ROOT_OBJECT' #define ACPI_ROOT_OBJECT ((acpi_handle) ACPI_TO_POINTER (ACPI_MAX_PTR)) ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ./include/acpi/actypes.h:509:41: note: expanded from macro 'ACPI_TO_POINTER' #define ACPI_TO_POINTER(i) ACPI_ADD_PTR (void, (void *) 0, (acpi_size) (i)) ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ./include/acpi/actypes.h:503:84: note: expanded from macro 'ACPI_ADD_PTR' #define ACPI_ADD_PTR(t, a, b) ACPI_CAST_PTR (t, (ACPI_CAST_PTR (u8, (a)) + (acpi_size)(b))) ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ./include/acpi/actypes.h:501:66: note: expanded from macro 'ACPI_CAST_PTR' #define ACPI_CAST_PTR(t, p) ((t *) (acpi_uintptr_t) (p)) ^ This is because pointer arithmetic on a pointer not pointing to an array is an undefined behavior. Fix it by doing an integer arithmetic instead.
