I have a question regarding for a special form of automatic builds that I do not understand.

Occasionally, I get an email for additional pipeline build that is different from default pipeline linked to the ticket. It is a wider set of compilers and distributions.

Several questions:
  1. What is the significance of this and when it is triggered?
  2. Why it is not linked to MR (meaning I cannot see this failure in MR)?
  3. Shall I fix these failures?
  4. How do I know that the issue is fixed, since such builds are not linked to MR?
I have looked at this particular one, and it is a a bug in compiler:

guint64 off =...; /* take from command context, now looking at reply */
if (off < 40)

        proto_add_item(...., .... 40-off,.....);

So, the error (in CLANG-11) is (40-off) is 64-bit and passing it as 32-bit parameter "looses high-order bits".

First, the compiler shall see that no loss of value takes place because of the "IF" statement here. Second, since when passing 64-bit value as a 32-bit parameter shall be a compiler error in C language?


I can easily fix this (check the value in saved context, and if it is above possible payload length return, then declare off as 32-bit), but I need to know if CLANG-11 (with draconian compile options) is a MUST to pass.
