Description:
".../storage/innobase/dict/dict0dict.c", line 4146: warning: argument #1 is incompatible with prototype:
        prototype: pointer to void : "/opt/studio12/SUNWspro/prod/include/cc/sun_prefetch.h", line 159
        argument : pointer to const unsigned char
cc: acomp failed for .../storage/innobase/dict/dict0dict.c
this is mysql-5.5-innodb r3264

This is apparently caused by the

	UNIV_PREFETCH_R(rec);

that I added to dict_index_copy_rec_order_prefix() in MySQL 5.0.3 when profiling the introduction of ROW_FORMAT=COMPACT. Back then, I only defined UNIV_PREFETCH_R on GCC.

Someone has since then defined it as sun_prefetch_read_many(addr) on the Sun compiler, in MySQL 5.1 InnoDB Plugin and later. The function prototype in sun_prefetch.h ought to be wrong (it should say const void*, not void*).

How to repeat:
Compile MySQL 5.1 InnoDB Plugin or MySQL 5.5 or later with the Sun compiler.

Suggested fix:
-# define UNIV_PREFETCH_R(addr) sun_prefetch_read_many(addr)
+# define UNIV_PREFETCH_R(addr) sun_prefetch_read_many((void*) addr)
