Subject: [PATCH v2 proxmox-rrd-migration-tool] use libc::c_char instead of i8 to fix mismatched type
Date: Fri, 9 Oct 2026 22:02:07 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261009130412.927074-1-jing@jing.rocks> (raw)
Otherwise this fails on non-amd64 arches:
error[E0308]: mismatched types
--> src/main.rs:374:17
|
374 | source[0] = file.0.as_ptr();
| --------- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ expected `*const i8`, found `*const u8`
| |
| expected due to the type of this binding
|
= note: expected raw pointer `*const i8`
found raw pointer `*const u8`
error[E0308]: mismatched types
--> src/main.rs:386:13
|
381 | let res = rrd_create_r2(
| ------------- arguments to this function are incorrect
...
386 | source.as_mut_ptr(),
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ expected `*mut *const u8`, found `*mut *const i8`
|
= note: expected raw pointer `*mut *const u8`
found raw pointer `*mut *const i8`
