From 2f5281ba2a8feaf6f0aee93356f350855bb530fc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paul Burton Date: Fri, 2 Sep 2016 15:22:48 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] net: ti: cpmac: Fix compiler warning due to type confusion cpmac_start_xmit() used the max() macro on skb->len (an unsigned int) and ETH_ZLEN (a signed int literal). This led to the following compiler warning: In file included from include/linux/list.h:8:0, from include/linux/module.h:9, from drivers/net/ethernet/ti/cpmac.c:19: drivers/net/ethernet/ti/cpmac.c: In function 'cpmac_start_xmit': include/linux/kernel.h:748:17: warning: comparison of distinct pointer types lacks a cast (void) (&_max1 == &_max2); \ ^ drivers/net/ethernet/ti/cpmac.c:560:8: note: in expansion of macro 'max' len = max(skb->len, ETH_ZLEN); ^ On top of this, it assigned the result of the max() macro to a signed integer whilst all further uses of it result in it being cast to varying widths of unsigned integer. Fix this up by using max_t to ensure the comparison is performed as unsigned integers, and for consistency change the type of the len variable to unsigned int.
