Hi Eelco,
I tried with the suggestion “zd” is deprecated and in place of it %"PRIdSIZE`` is mentioned which still causes build failure on non-ssl 32 bit builds.
Regards
Amber

What was the reason for changing this size_t to uint32_t? Is see other instances
where %ld is used for logging?
And other functions like dp_netdev_run_meter() have it as a size_t?
The reason to change this is because 32-bit builds were breaking due to incorrect
format-specifier in the printf. Root cause is because size_t requires different printf
format specifier based on 32 or 64 bit arch.
(As you likely know, size_t is to describe objects in memory, or the return of sizeof operator.
Because 32-bit and 64-bit can have different amounts of memory, size_t can be "unsigned int"
or "unsigned long long").
It does not make sense to me to use a type of variable that changes width based on
architecture to count batch size (a value from 0 to 32).
Simplicity and obvious-ness is nice, and a uint32_t is always exactly what you read it to be,
and %d will always be correct for uint32_t regardless of 32 or 64 bit.
We should not change this back to the more complex and error-prone "size_t", uint32_t is better.
I don't think it’s more error-prone if the right type qualifier is used, i.e. %zd. See also the coding style document, so I would suggest changing it to:
