I think the second warning is simply additional information attached to the 1st to give context? I noticed this issue but felt changing the type of this field would sit outside the purview of this patch as then I'm not only changing the type of mmio750 and code that *directly* interacts with this variable, but also code that indirectly interacts with it, so I felt that should perhaps be a separate patch. I'd love to additionally provide some further patches to help out with issues here too, incidentally! I will try to prepare some further patches tonight in this vein.

You should have said that in the patch description or under the --- cut off. But anyway, it's not ok. And we'll need to redo this patch. Breaking up patches into logical changes is sort of tricky because everything touches everything else so the patch gets larger and larger. You could maybe break it up: [patch 1/2] staging: sm750fb: Cleanup the type of mmio750 This would add some temporary casting until the rest of the code was cleaned up. It wouldn't touch change the function parameters of ddk750_set_mmio(). [patch 2/2] staging: sm750fb: Cleanup the types for ddk750_set_mmio() This would change the function paramters and the type for ->pvReg and remove the temporary casts. But maybe it's only one line larger than the patch you just send? In that case just fold it in and don't do the temporary casting. The next patch after that could get rid of all the ramaining "volatile" keywords. regards, dan carpenter -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fbdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

I'll be careful to not make such assumptions in future when it comes to warnings/errors. [snip] > But maybe it's only one line larger than the patch you just send?

It seems that we can in fact fix this problem with a single additional change, I will submit a v2 shortly. Best,

This patch assigns the more appropriate void* type to the mmio750 variable eliminating an unnecessary volatile qualifier in the process. Additionally it updates parameter types as necessary where those parameters interact with mmio750 and removes unnecessary casts. As a consequence, this patch fixes the following sparse warning:- drivers/staging/sm750fb/ddk750_help.c:12:17: warning: incorrect type in assignment (different address spaces) Signed-off-by: Lorenzo Stoakes <lstoakes@gmail.com> --- drivers/staging/sm750fb/ddk750_chip.h | 4 +++- drivers/staging/sm750fb/ddk750_help.c | 4 ++-- drivers/staging/sm750fb/ddk750_help.h | 10 +++++----- 3 files changed, 10 insertions(+), 8 deletions(-)
