From: Cyril Chemparathy Date: Mon, 22 Jun 2015 18:34:15 +0000 (-0700) Subject: mempool: silence warning on pointer arithmetic X-Git-Tag: spdx-start~8976 X-Git-Url: http://git.droids-corp.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=6cf14ce4ce6cb8a9a26c20769f20a8bf34a4491f;p=dpdk.git mempool: silence warning on pointer arithmetic Translating from a mempool object to the mempool pointer does not break alignment constraints. However, the compiler is unaware of this fact and complains on -Wcast-align. This patch modifies the code to use RTE_PTR_SUB(), thereby silencing the compiler by casting through (void *).
