Subject: [PATCH] optionrom/pvh: use memcmp() to find the RSDP signature
Date: Mon, 22 Mar 2021 12:48:34 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210322114834.166798-1-sgarzare@redhat.com> (raw)

New versions of gcc report a potential error and there may be alignment
issues using uint64_t pointer to check the RSDP signature:

    gcc 10.2.1 "cc (Alpine 10.2.1_pre2) 10.2.1 20210313" reports:

    pc-bios/optionrom/pvh_main.c: In function 'search_rsdp':
    pc-bios/optionrom/pvh_main.c:61:21: warning: comparison is always false
    due to limited range of data type [-Wtype-limits]
       61 |         if (*rsdp_p == RSDP_SIGNATURE) {
          |                     ^~

Let's use memcmp() to get more readable code and avoid these issues.
Since pvh optionrom is baremetal, we use the compiler's __builtin_memcmp.
