Subject: [PATCH] OvmfPkg/PvScsiDxe: Fix VS2019 build error because of implicit cast
Date: Tue, 31 Mar 2020 14:04:52 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200331110452.51992-1-liran.alon@oracle.com> (raw)

Sean reported that VS2019 build produce the following build error:
INFO - PvScsi.c
INFO - Generating code
INFO - d:\a\1\s\OvmfPkg\PvScsiDxe\PvScsi.c(459): error C2220: the following warning is treated as an error
INFO - d:\a\1\s\OvmfPkg\PvScsiDxe\PvScsi.c(459): warning C4244: '=': conversion from 'const UINT16' to 'UINT8', possible loss of data

This result from an implicit cast from PVSCSI Response->ScsiStatus
(Which is UINT16) to Packet->TargetResponse (Which is UINT8).

Fix this issue by adding an appropriate explicit cast and verify with
assert that this truncation do not result in loss of data.
