Hi Avi, Ben,

Today's linux-next build (powerpc ppc44x_defconfig) failed like this:

cc1: warnings being treated as errors
arch/powerpc/kvm/../../../virt/kvm/kvm_main.c: In function '__kvm_set_memory_region':
arch/powerpc/kvm/../../../virt/kvm/kvm_main.c:1178: error: integer overflow in expression

Probably caused by commit ac04527f7947020c5890090b2ac87af4e98d977e ("KVM:
Disable large pages on misaligned memory slots"). The build fails because
arch/powerpc is now being built (mostly) with -Werror.

arch/powerpc/include/asm/kvm_host.h:#define KVM_PAGES_PER_HPAGE (1<<31)

this needs to be (1UL << 31) or ((unsigned int)1 << 31).

I applied the following patch for today.

From: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au>
Date: Wed, 17 Jun 2009 14:57:29 +1000
Subject: [PATCH] kvm/powerpc: make 32 bit constant unsigned long

KVM_PAGES_PER_HPAGE needs to be unsigned long since its value is 2^31.

Eliminates this compiler warning:

arch/powerpc/kvm/../../../virt/kvm/kvm_main.c:1178: error: integer overflow in expression

Thanks, applied.  For some reason my own build testing didn't fail on this.

Thanks.  It could be a different compiler version doesn't complain (I am
currently using 4.4.0) and the powerpc tree has a patch to build parts of
arch/powerpc with -Werror which makes it stand out a bit :-)

Ah yes, you did mention it was a warning.
