Subject: [PATCH] byteswap: don't use __builtin_bswap*() with sparse
Date: Thu, 11 Aug 2016 13:15:02 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1470914102-26389-1-git-send-email-johannes@sipsolutions.net> (raw)

From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

Although sparse declares __builtin_bswap*(), it can't actually
do constant folding inside them (yet). As such, things like

  switch (protocol) {
  case htons(ETH_P_IP):
          break;
  }

which we do all over the place cause sparse to warn that it
expects a constant instead of a function call.

Disable __HAVE_BUILTIN_BSWAP*__ if __CHECKER__ is defined to
avoid this.

Cc: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
Fixes: 7322dd755e7d ("byteswap: try to avoid __builtin_constant_p gcc bug")
