[...] > -char __initdata *uboot_arg; > +unsigned int __initdata uboot_arg; Why ? In both places it is actually used, it is intended as a pointer. The cast for range check is needed but lets cast there. See below for real reason. > -static inline int is_kernel(unsigned long addr) > +static inline bool uboot_arg_invalid(unsigned int addr) > { > - if (addr >= (unsigned long)_stext && addr <= (unsigned long)_end) > - return 1; > + > + /* Check that address doesn't clobber resident kernel image */ > + return addr >= (unsigned int)_stext && addr <= (unsigned int)_end; ... > + > + /* see if U-boot passed an external Device Tree blob */ > + if (uboot_tag == UBOOT_TAG_DTB) { > + machine_desc = setup_machine_fdt((void *)uboot_arg); On a 64-bit paradigm, with LP64 ABI, this will break since int will be 4b, while pointer 8b. I'll fix it up locally and push ! -Vineet _______________________________________________ linux-snps-arc mailing list linux-snps-arc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-snps-arc
