From a288f15c16b553ef851fda12403fb560113bf725 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hans Verkuil Date: Thu, 22 May 2014 10:44:12 +1000 Subject: [PATCH] include/asm-generic/ioctl.h: fix _IOC_TYPECHECK sparse error When running sparse over drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-ioctl.c I get these errors: drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-ioctl.c:2043:9: error: bad integer constant expression drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-ioctl.c:2044:9: error: bad integer constant expression drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-ioctl.c:2045:9: error: bad integer constant expression drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-ioctl.c:2046:9: error: bad integer constant expression etc. The root cause of that turns out to be in include/asm-generic/ioctl.h: #include /* provoke compile error for invalid uses of size argument */ extern unsigned int __invalid_size_argument_for_IOC; #define _IOC_TYPECHECK(t) \ ((sizeof(t) == sizeof(t[1]) && \ sizeof(t) < (1 << _IOC_SIZEBITS)) ? \ sizeof(t) : __invalid_size_argument_for_IOC) If it is defined as this (as is already done if __KERNEL__ is not defined): #define _IOC_TYPECHECK(t) (sizeof(t)) then all is well with the world. This patch allows sparse to work correctly.
