From: Skanda Guruanand <skanda.kashyap@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Skanda Guruanand <skanda.kashyap@xxxxxxxxx> --- I have modified struct lu_dirpage in lustre_idl.h file to remove the sparse warnings where cast to restricted types are made. Following warnings were removed by this fix. drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/mdc/mdc_request.c:958:42: warning: cast to restricted __le64 drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/mdc/mdc_request.c:959:42: warning: cast to restricted __le64 drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/mdc/mdc_request.c:962:42: warning: cast to restricted __le64 drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/mdc/mdc_request.c:963:42: warning: cast to restricted __le64 drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/mdc/mdc_request.c:985:50: warning: cast to restricted __le32 drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/mdc/mdc_request.c:1193:24: warning: cast to restricted __le64 drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/mdc/mdc_request.c:1328:25: warning: cast to restricted __le64 drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/mdc/mdc_request.c:1329:23: warning: cast to restricted __le64 drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/mdc/mdc_request.c:1332:25: warning: cast to restricted __le64 drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/mdc/mdc_request.c:1333:23: warning: cast to restricted __le64 I have not got a chance to test it as I don't have a big endian system. I feel the change is reasonably correct as the elements of the structure lu_dirpage are always converted from little-endian format to processor's native format. drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/include/lustre/lustre_idl.h | 8 ++++---- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/include/lustre/lustre_idl.h b/drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/include/lustre/lustre_idl.h index 60b827e..df48b8d 100644 --- a/drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/include/lustre/lustre_idl.h +++ b/drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/include/lustre/lustre_idl.h @@ -846,10 +846,10 @@ struct luda_type { #endif struct lu_dirpage { - __u64 ldp_hash_start; - __u64 ldp_hash_end; - __u32 ldp_flags; - __u32 ldp_pad0; + __le64 ldp_hash_start; + __le64 ldp_hash_end; + __le32 ldp_flags; + __le32 ldp_pad0; struct lu_dirent ldp_entries[0]; }; -- 1.9.1 _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
