These functions follow the type of atomic64_t which is a "long" wrapped in a structure. We do not want to change that to unsigned long, are we? Then having some of the functions operate on "long" and others on "unsigned long" seem odd. > The warnings with __atomic64_add are tougher to read/understand since > at that point the log lines look like they start to mix together. > > > > > I also tried patching the code to avoid the warnings, but I'm not entirely > > happy with that result either, see > > https://pastebin.com/pSMz5eZA > > That's no terrible, IMO, particularly with the change I suggest above. That is not too bad, the only change I do not like is the s/u8/char/ in struct ipl_block_fcp. -- blue skies, Martin. "Reality continues to ruin my life." - Calvin.
