Hi,

FYI, building 2.6.22-rc2 with
gcc (GCC) 4.1.3 20070514 (prerelease) (Debian 4.1.2-7)
on my powerbook (PPC) gives:

...
kernel/power/swsusp.c: In function 'swsusp_show_speed':
kernel/power/swsusp.c:193: warning: comparison of distinct pointer types lacks a cast
...


If more info is needed, please contact me via PM, as I am not
subscribed.

Thanks for your patience
Elimar

Well, this warning doesn't make sense.  In 2.6.22-rc2 line 193 of swsusp.c is

do_div(elapsed_centisecs64, NSEC_PER_SEC / 100);

where elapsed_centisecs64 is s64.

Greetings,
Rafael

yeah, and the do_div64 macro is then comparing (s64*) == (u64*) in a
null-statement and tells you that the types are different. I tracked
this a long time ago and figured it wasn't worth thinking about.

Elimar, can you modify the code to 

do_div(elapsed_centisecs64, (s64) NSEC_PER_SEC / 100);

...to see if the warning goes away?

Same warning :(

That wouldn't help since the u64 is hardcoded. Changing
elapsed_centisecs64 to s64 should help but doesn't seem right either.
The warning is just bogus.

void swsusp_show_speed(struct timeval *start, struct timeval *stop,
			unsigned nr_pages, char *msg)
{
	s64 elapsed_centisecs64;
	int centisecs;
	int k;
	int kps;

	elapsed_centisecs64 = timeval_to_ns(stop) - timeval_to_ns(start);
	do_div(elapsed_centisecs64, NSEC_PER_SEC / 100);
	centisecs = elapsed_centisecs64;
	if (centisecs == 0)
		centisecs = 1;	/* avoid div-by-zero */

Hmm, which line triggers that? do_div? Can you add some casts to work
around this?
