Hello Sudarsana Reddy Kalluru,

The patch d552fa84cb35: "qede: Add support for coalescing config
read/update." from Jun 21, 2016, leads to the following static
checker warning:

	drivers/net/ethernet/qlogic/qede/qede_ethtool.c:435 qede_get_coalesce()
	warn: passing casted pointer '&coal->rx_coalesce_usecs' to 'edev->ops->common->get_coalesce()' 32 vs 16.

drivers/net/ethernet/qlogic/qede/qede_ethtool.c
   429  static int qede_get_coalesce(struct net_device *dev,
   430                               struct ethtool_coalesce *coal)
   431  {
   432          struct qede_dev *edev = netdev_priv(dev);
   433  
   434          memset(coal, 0, sizeof(struct ethtool_coalesce));
   435          edev->ops->common->get_coalesce(edev->cdev,
   436                                          (u16 *)&coal->rx_coalesce_usecs,
   437                                          (u16 *)&coal->tx_coalesce_usecs);

This won't work on big endian systems.  Fix it so the function takes a
u32 or make ->rx_coalesce_usecs a u16.

   438  
   439          return 0;
   440  }

regards,
dan carpenter

given you do a memset before, what are the chances that coal->rx_coalesce_usecs != 0 ?
Is there a dynamic update in the background ?

It's a getter; The entire purpose of the `get_coalesce' function is to fill
those fields with actual values.
[Although I noticed that the memset is clearing the `cmd' field,
which isn't an intended result]
