The sparse checker complains about converting pointers between address spaces. We correctly stored an __iomem pointer in struct spear13xx_pcie, but discarded the __iomem when extracting app_base, causing one warning. Then we passed the non-__iomem pointer to writel(), which expects an __iomem pointer, causing another warning. Add the appropriate annotations. The sparse warnings look like this: $ make C=2 drivers/pci/controller/ drivers/pci/controller/dwc/pcie-spear13xx.c:72:54: warning: incorrect type in initializer (different address spaces) drivers/pci/controller/dwc/pcie-spear13xx.c:72:54: expected struct pcie_app_reg *app_reg drivers/pci/controller/dwc/pcie-spear13xx.c:72:54: got void [noderef] __iomem *app_base drivers/pci/controller/dwc/pcie-spear13xx.c:78:26: warning: incorrect type in argument 2 (different address spaces) drivers/pci/controller/dwc/pcie-spear13xx.c:78:26: expected void volatile [noderef] __iomem *addr drivers/pci/controller/dwc/pcie-spear13xx.c:78:26: got unsigned int * Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20211223213749.1314142-3-helgaas@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@google.com> Cc: Pratyush Anand <pratyush.anand@gmail.com>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
