Subject: [PATCH v2] selftest/mm: fix pointer comparison in mremap_test
Date: Sat, 8 Nov 2025 21:48:29 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251108161829.25105-1-ankitkhushwaha.linux@gmail.com> (raw)
Pointer arthemitic with 'void * addr' and 'ulong dest_alignment'
triggers following warning:
mremap_test.c:1035:31: warning: pointer comparison always evaluates to
false [-Wtautological-compare]
1035 | if (addr + c.dest_alignment < addr) {
| ^
this warning is raised from clang version 20.1.8 (Fedora 20.1.8-4.fc42).
use 'void *tmp_addr' to do the pointer arthemitic.
Signed-off-by: Ankit Khushwaha <ankitkhushwaha.linux@gmail.com>

Changelog:
v2:
- use 'void *tmp_addr' for pointer arthemitic instead of typecasting
'addr' to 'unsigned long long' as suggested by Andrew.
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-kselftest/20251106104917.39890-1-ankitkhushwaha.linux@gmail.com/
