[PATCH] byteswap: don't use __builtin_bswap*() with sparse

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

 



From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

Although sparse declares __builtin_bswap*(), it can't actually
do constant folding inside them (yet). As such, things like

  switch (protocol) {
  case htons(ETH_P_IP):
          break;
  }

which we do all over the place cause sparse to warn that it
expects a constant instead of a function call.

Disable __HAVE_BUILTIN_BSWAP*__ if __CHECKER__ is defined to
avoid this.
