Re: [PATCH v3] selftests/resctrl: fix clang build warnings related to abs(), labs() calls

Hi John,

On 5/8/2024 12:41 PM, John Hubbard wrote:

When building with clang, via:

make LLVM=1 -C tools/testing/selftests

...two types of warnings occur:

warning: absolute value function 'abs' given an argument of type
'long' but has parameter of type 'int' which may cause truncation of
value

warning: taking the absolute value of unsigned type 'unsigned long'
has no effect

Fix these by:

a) using labs() in place of abs(), when long integers are involved, and

b) Change to use signed integer data types, in places where subtraction is used (and could end up with negative values).

c) Remove a duplicate abs() call in cmt_test.c.

nit: since you are touching this line, could you please move it down one line to establish reverse fir order?

Same nit here about reverse fir order.

Thank you very much for sticking with this to fix the warnings. With the nitpicks addressed you can add: | Reviewed-by: Reinette Chatre reinette.chatre@intel.com
