[PATCH v2] selftests/resctrl: fix clang build warnings related to abs(), labs() calls

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



First of all, in order to build with clang at all, one must first apply
Valentin Obst's build fix for LLVM [1]. Furthermore, for this particular
resctrl directory, my pending fix [2] must also be applied. Once those
fixes are in place, then when building with clang, via:

    make LLVM=1 -C tools/testing/selftests

...two types of warnings occur:

    warning: absolute value function 'abs' given an argument of type
    'long' but has parameter of type 'int' which may cause truncation of
    value

    warning: taking the absolute value of unsigned type 'unsigned long'
    has no effect

Fix these by:

a) using labs() in place of abs(), when long integers are involved, and

b) Change to use signed integer data types, in places where subtraction
   is used (and could end up with negative values).

Hi Reinette,

This v2 includes a fix for the bugs that you pointed out (thanks!) in v1.

I kept the changes to signed integers minimal: only what is required in
order to get a clean clang build.

thanks,
John Hubbard
