Linux kernel source tree
f4ecb3d44a
When building with -Wincompatible-function-pointer-types-strict, a
warning designed to catch potential kCFI failures at build time rather
than run time due to incorrect function pointer types, there is a
warning due to a mismatch between the type of the mode parameter in
mlx5_dpll_device_mode_get() vs. what the function pointer prototype for
->mode_get() in 'struct dpll_device_ops' expects.
drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/dpll.c:141:14: error: incompatible function pointer types initializing 'int (*)(const struct dpll_device *, void *, enum dpll_mode *, struct netlink_ext_ack *)' with an expression of type 'int (const struct dpll_device *, void *, u32 *, struct netlink_ext_ack *)' (aka 'int (const struct dpll_device *, void *, unsigned int *, struct netlink_ext_ack *)') [-Werror,-Wincompatible-function-pointer-types-strict]
141 | .mode_get = mlx5_dpll_device_mode_get,
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1 error generated.
Change the type of the mode parameter in mlx5_dpll_device_mode_get() to
clear up the warning and avoid kCFI failures at run time.

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.
