Bug Description

The code base is on master, checked out on Thursday June25th 2020, 0250c595c9d. The build procedure:

$ mkdir build-gcc
$ cd build-gcc
$ ../configure
$ make

The build error message is:

I suspect an extra uintptr_t cast will fix this:

p = (void *)(uintptr_t)(((uintptr_t)iter->map & TARGET_PAGE_MASK) | off_in_page);

Which looks kind of ugly but then the code is taking a host void* (iter->map), casting it to integer to do arithmetic on and then wanting to get it back to a void* which is inherently going to result in a mess of casting...

FWIW there is no CI job covering x86 KVM on 32-bit host build.
Should this be covered? I guess the problem is no CI services
provide 32-bit x86...

Oh, this case is covered:
https://app.shippable.com/github/qemu/qemu/runs/2437/2/console

But this doesn't use KVM ;)

Hello, Jon.

I don't know about the container, but, as Peter noted, the following
(non-beautiful) diff fixes the build problem on the real host:

diff --git a/hw/hyperv/vmbus.c b/hw/hyperv/vmbus.c
index f371240176..9220f7b529 100644
--- a/hw/hyperv/vmbus.c
+++ b/hw/hyperv/vmbus.c
@@ -383,7 +383,8 @@ static ssize_t gpadl_iter_io(GpadlIter *iter, void
*buf, uint32_t len)
             }
         }

- p = (void *)(((uintptr_t)iter->map & TARGET_PAGE_MASK) | off_in_page);
+ p = (void *)(uintptr_t)(((uintptr_t)iter->map & TARGET_PAGE_MASK) |
+ off_in_page);
         if (iter->dir == DMA_DIRECTION_FROM_DEVICE) {
             memcpy(p, buf, cplen);
         } else {

Not sure if this is an optimal/most-elegant solution though.

Warmly,
Aleksandar
