[PATCH 2/3] tools lib traceevent: fix pointer-integer size mismatch

From: Mark Rutland
Date: Wed Jan 15 2014 - 05:44:44 EST


The scsi and cfg80211 plugins cast between unsigned long long and
pointers, which is problematic for architectures where unsigned long
long is wider than the native pointer size:

linux/tools/lib/traceevent/plugin_scsi.c: In function âprocess_scsi_trace_parse_cdbâ:
linux/tools/lib/traceevent/plugin_scsi.c:408:26: warning: cast to pointer from integer of different size [-Wint-to-pointer-cast]
scsi_trace_parse_cdb(s, (unsigned char *) args[1], args[2]);

linux/tools/lib/traceevent/plugin_cfg80211.c: In function âprocess___le16_to_cpupâ:
linux/tools/lib/traceevent/plugin_cfg80211.c:11:18: warning: cast to pointer from integer of different size [-Wint-to-pointer-cast]
uint16_t *val = (uint16_t *) args[0];

This patch adds an intermediate cast to unsigned long, silencing the
warning.

I'm not sure about this one as I'm not certain I read all the sites
input values for args could be generated. I'd appreciate if someone more
familiar with traceevent plugins could verify this makes sense.

Mark.
