Subject: [PATCH 1/2] infiniband: qplib_fp: fix pointer cast

Building for a 32-bit target results in a couple of warnings from casting between
a 32-bit pointer and a 64-bit integer:

As a general rule we haven't been sending sparse cleanups like this to
-rc which is why it went to -next..

Can you talk about why this is important to kernelci? I'm not familiar
at all with it.

I'm a little leary to duplicate a commit in both our branches without
a good reason??

Hi Jason,

kernelci still reports the warning for v4.16-rc, any chance you can also send it
as a bugfix for the current release?

I agree that we shouldn't do this for sparse warnings, but the one I'm
interested in is a compiler warning in the allmodconfig build, as
found by kernelci.org. This is one of only three remaining warnings
that it reports for any of the default builds, see [1] for the overall
build reports on mainline kernels, and [2] for the detailed log of
the arm64 allmodconfig build that shows it.

A small complication is that I wrote the changelog for the build warning
on 32-bit architectures, which is more elaborate. kernelci.org for
some reasons currently skips the allmodconfig build on all 32-bit
architectures (I should ask the kernelci maintainers to change that),
but the same patch I sent also addresses a warning on bit-endian
64-bit architectures:

../drivers/infiniband/hw/bnxt_re/qplib_fp.c: In function
'bnxt_qplib_create_srq':
../include/uapi/linux/byteorder/big_endian.h:31:52: warning: passing
argument 1 of '__fswab64' makes integer from pointer without a cast
[-Wint-conversion]
#define __cpu_to_le64(x) ((__force __le64)__swab64((x)))
^
../include/uapi/linux/swab.h:132:12: note: in definition of macro '__swab64'

^
../include/linux/byteorder/generic.h:86:21: note: in expansion of
macro '__cpu_to_le64'
#define cpu_to_le64 __cpu_to_le64

../drivers/infiniband/hw/bnxt_re/qplib_fp.c:569:19: note: in expansion

req.srq_handle = cpu_to_le64(srq);

long unsigned int}' but argument is of type 'struct bnxt_qplib_srq *'
static inline __attribute_const__ __u64 __fswab64(__u64 val)

On x86 and on the arm64 defconfig build, the __cpu_to_le64() is defined in
include/uapi/linux/byteorder/little_endian.h and degrades into a __force
cast that happens to avoid this warning, but on arm64 allmodconfig,
we use include/uapi/linux/byteorder/big_endian.h, which passes
the pointer into __swab64() first, and that warns about the type
mismatch.

I see that Olof's build bot does have build results for arm32
allmodconfig, which is also big-endian, and reports the same
errors that I described in the patch changelog.

See

http://arm-soc.lixom.net/buildlogs/arm-soc/v4.16-rc4-25-g41c42fe/
http://arm-soc.lixom.net/buildlogs/arm-soc/v4.16-rc4-25-g41c42fe/buildall.arm.allmodconfig.log.passed

for today's results.

This bot reports one other warning for arm32, but it's
specific to the toolchain version used on that bot.
I have a fix for that one as well, but there was some
discussion on what the best approach would be.

Any update on this? This is now the only remaining gcc warning we get on
allmodconfig builds for arm (both 32-bit and 64-bit) in linux-4.16-rc.

Do you need the full series to fix this (it looked that way to me)?

I just double-checked, as I thought only the first one was needed, but
indeed we do need both.

Hi Linus,

Arnd sent in a two patch series and it got put into our for-next branch.
But, the two patches are the *only* two remaining issues for the arm
builds on the kernelci system. They would like to get this into for-rc
so that the build failures stop. Are you OK with me just cherry-picking
them from for-next to for-rc so I can send them to you? They'll show as
duplicates in the next merge window, but should drop silently.

Go ahead, assuming there are no other planned changes around them that
would cause potential pointless merge problems..

These two patches will be fine in that regard. They aren't in the area
where all the syzkaller bugs have been getting fixed. But I need to
merge for-rc into for-next because of all of the syzkaller bugs being
fixed. We are running into a situation where code updates that were
planned are in areas where syzkaller bugs have been fixed and there
would be significant merge conflicts if I didn't. So, the plan as it
stands is: get the needed patches in for-rc, merge for-rc to for-next,
then cherry pick from for-next to for-rc just the two patches here
(since I have no idea how cherry picking to for-rc and then merging for-
rc to for-next would play out, I'm just not gonna try it).

It's a bit convoluted, but as long as I don't use my standard git
request pull macro when generating the pull request (it will pick the
wrong merge base every time whenever you've merged for-rc into for-next,
you have to manually find the alternate merge base and use the right one
for git request pull) it comes out nicely in the end.
