It appears that RDMA is broken on 32 bit platforms. Sure you don't run on 32bit, but iproute2 needs to build everywhere.
The issue is that you are assuming a C enum can hold 64 bits. The standard says enum only has to hold "int" values. So it breaks on 32bit. The issue is deeper than just a trivial fix. Please either change iproute config script to not build RDMA if sizeof(enum) < 64 or fix the code to use a safe value like uint64_t. rdma CC rdma.o CC utils.o CC dev.o CC link.o In file included from rdma.h:26:0, from dev.c:12: dev.c: In function ‘dev_caps_to_str’: ../include/utils.h:269:38: warning: left shift count >= width of type [-Wshift-count-overflow] #define BIT(nr) (1UL << (nr)) ^ rdma.h:32:61: note: in expansion of macro ‘BIT’ #define RDMA_BITMAP_ENUM(name, bit_no) RDMA_BITMAP_##name = BIT(bit_no), ^~~ If you wade through the macro swamp: dev.c #define RDMA_DEV_FLAGS(x) \ x(SG_GAPS_REG, 32) \ enum { RDMA_DEV_FLAGS(RDMA_BITMAP_ENUM) }; Expands to: enum { RDMA_BITMAP_SG_GAPS_REG = (1UL << (32)), };
