GCC emits pedwarns unconditionally when comparing pointers of different types, for example:
int xdp_context (struct xdp_md *xdp) { void *data = (void *)(long)xdp->data; __u32 *metadata = (void *)(long)xdp->data_meta; __u32 ret; if (metadata + 1 > data) return 0; return 1; } /home/jemarch/foo.c: In function ‘xdp_context’: /home/jemarch/foo.c:15:20: warning: comparison of distinct pointer types lacks a cast 15 | if (metadata + 1 > data) | ^ LLVM supports an option -W[no-]compare-distinct-pointer-types that can be used in order to enable or disable the emission of such warnings. It is enabled by default. This patch adds the same options to GCC. Documentation and testsuite updated included. Regtested in x86_64-linu-gnu.
