[PATCH] libfec: fix up pointer warnings in fec magic computation

Mike Frysinger vapier at gentoo.org
Wed Sep 22 23:08:03 EDT 2010


The current fec code casts a pointer to an int which causes warnings on
64bit systems.  So create a macro for the duplicate/complicated magic
computation, and add an unsigned long cast in it to fix the original
problem.
