Subject: [PATCH] xfstests: replace custom __u64 definition with uint64_t
Date: Thu, 21 Dec 2023 11:42:31 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20231221061231.44347-1-disgoel@linux.ibm.com> (raw)

In some distributions, __u64 is already defined in system header files,
causing compilation errors when building xfstest.

	# make
	    [CC]    ext4_resize
	ext4_resize.c:17:28: error: conflicting types for '__u64'
	 typedef unsigned long long __u64;
	                            ^~~~~
	In file included from /usr/include/asm/types.h:26:0,
	                 from /usr/include/linux/types.h:5,
	                 from /usr/include/linux/mount.h:4,
	                 from /usr/include/sys/mount.h:32,
	                 from ext4_resize.c:15:
	/usr/include/asm-generic/int-l64.h:30:23: note: previous declaration of '__u64' was here
	 typedef unsigned long __u64;
                       ^~~~~

To address this issue, replace the custom definition of __u64 with the
standard uint64_t type from <stdint.h>. uint64_t is part of the C99
standard, offering a standardised approach for representing unsigned
64-bit integers. This modification enhances code consistency and
ensures compatibility with standard types.

Tested on various distributions on Power architecture, by successfully
compiling xfstest. Additionally, verified the compatibility by running
ext4/033 and ext4/056 tests, both of which use ext4_resize and
observed successful test execution.

        # make
            [CC]    detached_mounts_propagation
            [CC]    ext4_resize
            [CC]    t_readdir_3
