[PATCH 1/4] selftests/cgroup: fix clang build failures for abs() calls

From: John Hubbard
Date: Thu May 02 2024 - 23:51:29 EST


First of all, in order to build with clang at all, one must first apply
Valentin Obst's build fix for LLVM [1]. Once that is done, then when
building with clang, via:

make LLVM=1 -C tools/testing/selftests

..clang is pickier than gcc, about which version of abs(3) to call,
depending on the argument type:

int abs(int j);
long labs(long j);
long long llabs(long long j);

..and this is causing both build failures and warnings, when running:

make LLVM=1 -C tools/testing/selftests

Fix this by calling labs() in value_close(), because the arguments are
unambiguously "long" type.
