I have sparse 0.6.3 on an Debian bullseye amd64 system. Sources are from linux-next next-20210723
make allnoconfig cat >> .config << "EOF" CONFIG_NET=y CONFIG_INET=y CONFIG_BATMAN_ADV=y CONFIG_BATMAN_ADV_DAT=y EOF make olddefconfig make CHECK="sparse -Wbitwise-pointer" C=1
I should maybe have made this clearer in the last sentence of the first paragraph: "This is also true for pointers to variables with this type when -Wbitwise-pointer is activated."
