#1697508 — [PATCH] mm: memcontrol: Cast mismatched enum types passed to memcg state and event functions

In multiple instances enum values of an incorrect type are passed to
mod_memcg_state() and other memcg functions. Apparently this is
intentional, however clang rightfully generates tons of warnings about
the mismatched types. Cast the offending values to the type expected
by the called function. The casts add noise, but this seems preferable
over losing the typesafe interface or/and disabling the warning.

__mod_memcg_state()'s `idx' arg can be either enum memcg_stat_item or
enum memcg_stat_item.  I think it would be better to just admit to
ourselves that __mod_memcg_state() is more general than it appears, and
change it to take `int idx'.  I assume that this implicit cast of an
enum to an int will not trigger a clang warning?

Sure, no warnings are raised for implicit casts from enum to
int.

__mod_memcg_state() is not the only function though, all these
functions are called with conflicting types:

memcg_page_state()
__mod_memcg_state()
mod_memcg_state()
count_memcg_events()
count_memcg_page_event()
memcg_sum_events()

Should we change all of them to reveice an int instead of an enum?

I suspect so - the current implementation is denying reality and your
original proposal is a bit of a fudge.  But I'll await input from the
memcg peeps.

well, those enums do not help type safety much I am afraid so turining
the idx to int sounds like a more preferable way to me. Johannes?

I agree, turning the parameter into an int makes for much nicer code
than the casts.

Matthias, would you care to update your patch to change these over?
