Quite frankly, calling this "making the code clearer" is a bit ridiculous.
That code still is absolute *crap* from a readability angle. It doesn't
follow any sane coding standards, and certainly not the most important
ones ("keep the function small", "don't have tons of local variables"),
and it has absolutely ridiculously ugly casts that get repeated over and
over and over again.
Quite frankly, I don't quite understand where you get those enormous balls
you have, that you can then talk about how ugly it is to just add a "= 0"
that shuts up a compiler warning. That's the _least_ ugly part of the
whole damn function!
So rather than sending out that idiotic patch, look at that code for five
seconds, and ponder whether it really needs to be that ugly.
Here's a few things that you could *really* do to make it somewhat more
readable:
- make that whole "switch()" statement from hell another function
entirely, and have it return the size of the thing, so that you don't
need to have
wqe += xxx
size += xxx / 16;
repeated fifty times (and so that it's also obvious that the xxxx
always matches).
- make each switch case actually call a small function with the argument
cast to the right pointer type, so that you need *one* cast per case,
rather than a handful.
End result? More readable source code, with functions that are 20 lines
long (or less), rather than 200 lines of spagetti-coding.
And you know what? That's actually more important than 16 bytes of object
code, although looking at the size of the infiniband code, I *seriously*
doubt any infiniband person has ever cared about object code size in their
life. That thing is not for weak machines or stomachs.
The warnign (and fixing it up) is the _least_ of the problems in that
code, methinks.
Anyway, here's a totally untested cleanup that compiles but probably
doesn't work, because I didn't check that I did the right thing with all
the pointer arithmetic (ie when I change "wqe" to a real structure pointer
instead of just a "void *", maybe I left some pointer arithmetic around
that expected it to work as a byte pointer, but now really works on the
whole structure size instead).
So this patch is NOT meant to be applied, but it is meant to teach people
how things like this should be done. They should *not* be one big function
with lots of case statements. They should be lots of small functions!
