Subject: [PATCH 12/12] powerpc/fadump: Annotate endianness cast with __force
Date: Wed, 11 Oct 2023 16:37:11 +1100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20231011053711.93427-13-bgray@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20231011053711.93427-1-bgray@linux.ibm.com>

Sparse reports an endianness error with the else case of

  val = (cpu_endian ? be64_to_cpu(reg_entry->reg_val) :
         (u64)(reg_entry->reg_val));

This is a safe operation because the code is explicitly working with
dynamic endianness, so add the __force annotation to tell Sparse to
ignore it.
