Does this fix your issue? -- Steve >From d2802d0739dcc61af5e5ea00773ce7ddead4e9c2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Steven Rostedt (Red Hat)" <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri, 19 Apr 2013 17:10:27 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] tracing: Compare to 1 instead of zero for is_signed_type() The formats of the trace events show if the type of a event field is signed or not via a macro called is_signed_type(). This does a trick with the type and compares a -1 to zero after typecasting to the tested type. If it returns true, it's signed, otherwise its not. But this unfortunately triggers a warning by gcc: warning: comparison of unsigned expression < 0 is always false As we know it is always false (that's why we do it), this is a false warning. Luckily for us, the comparison works with a 1 as well, without giving the warning. Convert the check to compare (type)-1 < (type)0 to (type)-1 < (type)1 to determine if the type is signed or not.
