Compiler pointer warnings about tgl HOT 5 OPEN

Could you provide example? I always use 64-bit systems, should be safe

from tgl.

For example, on queries.c, everywhere when this is done:

packet_ptr - packet_buffer

there is a warning Implicit conversion loses integer precision: 'long' to 'int', since a pointer is a long in 64bit systems.

from tgl.

Yes, I understand, but of cause this is correct, since this length fits into integer. I suggest to disable such warnings as it is too much work to get rid of them (though you were right, there was one bug with msg_id).

The problem with disabling type warnings for these cases is that they can hide future legitimate errors. I prefer to live with them enabled knowing they are harmless.

It would be better to change all the pointers to intptr_t, that way they are always the right size. This also helps on architectures that define types strangely. (the joys of portable programming)
