A recent commit in clang added -Wtautological-compare to -Wall, which is
enabled for i915 after -Wtautological-compare is disabled for the rest
of the kernel so we see the following warning on x86_64:

 ../drivers/gpu/drm/i915/gem/i915_gem_execbuffer.c:1433:22: warning:
 result of comparison of constant 576460752303423487 with expression of
 type 'unsigned int' is always false
 [-Wtautological-constant-out-of-range-compare]
         if (unlikely(remain > N_RELOC(ULONG_MAX)))
            ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 ../include/linux/compiler.h:78:42: note: expanded from macro 'unlikely'
 # define unlikely(x)    __builtin_expect(!!(x), 0)
                                            ^
 1 warning generated.

It is not wrong in the case where ULONG_MAX > UINT_MAX but it does not
account for the case where this file is built for 32-bit x86, where
ULONG_MAX == UINT_MAX and this check is still relevant.

Cast remain to unsigned long, which keeps the generated code the same
(verified with clang-11 on x86_64 and GCC 9.2.0 on x86 and x86_64) and
the warning is silenced so we can catch more potential issues in the
future.

Works for me as a workaround,

But the whole point was that the compiler could see that it was
impossible and not emit the code. Doesn't this break that?

It seems that goal and the warning are fundamentally incompatible.

Back to the original patch?

As noted in the commit message, I ran diff <(objdump -Dr) <(objdump -Dr)
on objects files compiled with and without the patch with clang and gcc
for x86_64 and gcc for i386 (i386 does not build with clang) and there
was zero difference aside from the file names.

At the end of the day, I do not really care how the warning get fixed,
just that it does since it is the only one on x86_64 defconfig.

Cheers,
Nathan

Not really:

    if (sizeof(remain) >= sizeof(unsigned long) &&
	unlikely(remain > N_RELOC(ULONG_MAX)))
             return -EINVAL;

In contrast to the cast, this doesn't generate any machine code on 64-bit:

https://godbolt.org/z/GmUE4S

but still generates the same code on 32-bit:

Exactly.

This check is only a tautology when `sizeof(long) == sizeof(int)` (ie.
ILP32 platforms, like 32b x86), notice how BOTH GCC AND Clang generate
exactly the same code: https://godbolt.org/z/6ShrDM

Both compilers eliminate the check when `-m32` is not set, and
generate the exact same check otherwise.  How about:
```

This is the only warning on an x86_64 defconfig build. Apologies if we
are being too persistent or nagging but we need guidance from the i915
maintainers on which solution they would prefer so it can be picked up.
I understand you all are busy and I appreciate the work you all do but
I do not want this to fall between the cracks because it is annoying to
constantly see this warning.

Cheers,
Nathan

Apologies for the delay. As I replied first thing in this thread, this
works for me. Thanks for the patch, pushed to drm-intel-next-queued.

BR,
