bpftool: Fix a clang compilation warning
With clang compiler:
make -j60 LLVM=1 LLVM_IAS=1 <=== compile kernel
# build selftests/bpf or bpftool
make -j60 -C tools/testing/selftests/bpf LLVM=1 LLVM_IAS=1
make -j60 -C tools/bpf/bpftool LLVM=1 LLVM_IAS=1
the following compilation warning showed up,
net.c:160:37: warning: comparison of integers of different signs: '__u32' (aka 'unsigned int') and 'int' [-Wsign-compare]
for (nh = (struct nlmsghdr *)buf; NLMSG_OK(nh, len);
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
.../tools/include/uapi/linux/netlink.h:99:24: note: expanded from macro 'NLMSG_OK'
(nlh)->nlmsg_len <= (len))
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ^ ~~~
In this particular case, "len" is defined as "int" and (nlh)->nlmsg_len is "unsigned int".
The macro NLMSG_OK is defined as below in uapi/linux/netlink.h.
#define NLMSG_OK(nlh,len) ((len) >= (int)sizeof(struct nlmsghdr) && \
(nlh)->nlmsg_len >= sizeof(struct nlmsghdr) && \
(nlh)->nlmsg_len <= (len))
The clang compiler complains the comparision "(nlh)->nlmsg_len <= (len))",
but in bpftool/net.c, it is already ensured that "len > 0" must be true.
So theoretically the compiler could deduce that comparison of
"(nlh)->nlmsg_len" and "len" is okay, but this really depends on compiler
internals. Let us add an explicit type conversion (from "int" to "unsigned int")
for "len" in NLMSG_OK to silence this warning right now.
