> Subject: [edk2-devel] [PATCH V2 1/2] BaseTools: Add gcc flag to warn on
> void* pointer arithmetic
> 
> From: Pierre Gondois <pierre.gond...@arm.com>
> 
> By default, gcc allows void* pointer arithmetic.
> This is a GCC extension.
> However:
>  - the C reference manual states that void*
>    pointer "cannot be operands of addition
>    or subtraction operators". Cf s5.3.1
>    "Generic Pointers";
>  - Visual studio compiler treat such operation as
>    an error.
> 
> To prevent such pointer arithmetic, the "-Wpointer-arith"
> flag should be set for all GCC versions.
> 
> The "-Wpointer-arith"  allows to:
>   "Warn about anything that depends on the "size of"
>   a function type or of void. GNU C assigns these
>   types a size of 1, for convenience in calculations
>   with void * pointers and pointers to functions."
> 
> This flag is available since GCC2.95.3 which came out in 2001.
