Subject: [PATCH v2 0/5] Silence some clang -Wshorten-64-to-32 warnings
Date: Wed, 30 Apr 2025 10:15:29 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250430171534.132774-1-irogers@google.com> (raw)

Clang's shorten-64-to-32 can be useful to spot certain kinds of bugs
that can be more prevalent in C code due to implicit 64 to 32-bit
casting. Add some explicit casts to header files so as to avoid the
warning when these headers are used.

This patch started out as a single patch in a series for the perf tool
where a bug could have been identified were -Wshorten-64-to-32
enabled:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20250401182347.3422199-3-irogers@google.com/

v2: Rebase and try to address Arnd Bergmann's comments wrt the commit
    message. Arnd also mentioned doing larger refactors, changing
    return types and adding helper functions. I've held off doing this
    given concerns over breaking printf flags.
