Most of them are from parameter and signature changes from long to size, and each requires careful examination and analysis to understand if sign-extending is sufficient/appropriate, and whether the size change should propagate through more of the neighboring code. Most important is to avoid any casting to quiet the compiler since it is telling us something useful.
