[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] ui: fix format specifier in vnc_client_io_error() to avoid break in build.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] ui: fix format specifier in vnc_client_io_error() to avoid break in build.

[Rami Rosen]

When building qemu after setting _VNC_DEBUG to 1 (see ui/vnc.h),
we get the following error and the build breaks:
...
ui/vnc.c: In function ‘vnc_client_io_error’:
ui/vnc.c:1262:13: error: format ‘%d’ expects argument of type ‘int’, but argument 3 has type ‘ssize_t’ [-Werror=format=]
             VNC_DEBUG("Closing down client sock: ret %d (%s)\n",
             ^
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
make: *** [ui/vnc.o] Error 1
...

This patch solves this issue by fixing the print format specifier
in vnc_client_io_error() to be %ld, which corresponds to the type
of the "ret" variable.

NACK.  "ret" is ssize_t, which might be 'long' on some platforms, but is
'int' on others (32-bit platforms come to mind).

%zd is better than %ld.  Note that %zd is technically undefined -
neither C nor POSIX requires that the signed counterpart to 'size_t' be
ssize_t, nor that 'ssize_t' be the same size as 'size_t'; but it is safe
enough in qemu as we already have plenty of existing uses of this idiom
(and any platform that implements 'ssize_t' in a way that doesn't match
'%zd' is stupid when it comes to quality-of-implementation).

Looking forward to v2.
