Clang has traditionally allowed C programs to implicitly convert
integers to pointers and pointers to integers, despite it not being
valid to do so except under special circumstances (like converting the
integer 0, which is the null pointer constant, to a pointer). In C89,
this would result in undefined behavior per 3.3.4, and in C99 this rule
was strengthened to be a constraint violation instead. Constraint
violations are most often handled as an error.
This patch changes the warning to default to an error in all C modes
(it is already an error in C++). This gives us better security posture
by calling out potential programmer mistakes in code but still allows
users who need this behavior to use -Wno-error=int-conversion to retain
the warning behavior, or -Wno-int-conversion to silence the diagnostic
entirely.

A significant number of our tests in C accidentally use functions
without prototypes. This patch converts the function signatures to have
a prototype for the situations where the test is not specific to K&R C
declarations. e.g.,
void func();
becomes
void func(void);
This is the second batch of tests being updated (there are a significant
number of other tests left to be updated).
This patch added the following additional compile-once
run-everywhere (CO-RE) relocations:
- existence/size of typedef, struct/union or enum type
- enum value and enum value existence
These additional relocations will make CO-RE bpf programs more
adaptive for potential kernel internal data structure changes.
For existence/size relocations, the following two code patterns
are supported:
1. uint32_t __builtin_preserve_type_info(*(<type> *)0, flag);
2. <type> var;
uint32_t __builtin_preserve_field_info(var, flag);
flag = 0 for existence relocation and flag = 1 for size relocation.
For enum value existence and enum value relocations, the following code
pattern is supported:
uint64_t __builtin_preserve_enum_value(*(<enum_type> *)<enum_value>,
flag);
flag = 0 means existence relocation and flag = 1 for enum value.
relocation. In the above <enum_type> can be an enum type or
a typedef to enum type. The <enum_value> needs to be an enumerator
value from the same enum type. The return type is uint64_t to
permit potential 64bit enumerator values.
