Subject: [PATCH 06/17] batman-adv: Don't do pointer arithmetic with void*
Date: Mon, 30 May 2011 09:22:51 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1306740182-2665-7-git-send-email-sven@narfation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1306740182-2665-1-git-send-email-sven-KaDOiPu9UxWEi8DpZVb4nw@public.gmane.org>

The size of void is currently set by gcc to 1, but is not well defined
in general. Therefore it is more advisable to cast it to char* before
doing pointer arithmetic.
