Every time I build cxl I see the following warnings:
/scratch/dja/linux-capi/drivers/misc/cxl/pci.c: In function ‘sanitise_afu_regs’:
/scratch/dja/linux-capi/drivers/misc/cxl/pci.c:712:6: warning: suggest explicit braces to avoid ambiguous ‘else’ [-Wparentheses]
if (reg & CXL_PSL_DSISR_TRANS)

Why are they ambigous? Why doesn't cxl_p2n_write(afu, CXL_PSL_TFC_An,
CXL_PSL_TFC_An_AE) expand to a proper statement?
#define cxl_p2n_write(afu, reg, val) \
out_be64(_cxl_p2n_addr(afu, reg), val)
I realised that I started seeing this when I was working on my EEH
patches, which change the definition to:
#define cxl_p2n_write(afu, reg, val) \
if (cxl_adapter_link_ok(afu->adapter)) \
out_be64(_cxl_p2n_addr(afu, reg), val)
I'll redo the patch to change the write functions to wrap the if
statement so they cease to be ambiguous. I'll also spin a patch to
enable -Werror so I catch this earlier next time.
Thanks for the feedback, it was very helpful in me figuring out the root
cause.
