Date: Tue, 14 Jan 2020 15:23:49 +0100 From: Simon Wunderlich <sw@...onwunderlich.de> To: davem@...emloft.net Cc: netdev@...r.kernel.org, b.a.t.m.a.n@...ts.open-mesh.org, Sven Eckelmann <sven@...fation.org>, Simon Wunderlich <sw@...onwunderlich.de> Subject: [PATCH 5/7] batman-adv: Annotate bitwise integer pointer casts From: Sven Eckelmann <sven@...fation.org> The sparse commit 6002ded74587 ("add a flag to warn on casts to/from bitwise pointers") introduced a check for non-direct casts from/to restricted datatypes (when -Wbitwise-pointer is enabled). This triggered various warnings in batman-adv when some (already big endian) buffer content was casted to/from the corresponding big endian integer data types. But these were correct and can therefore be marked with __force to signalize sparse an intended cast from/to a bitwise type.
