I have an error when compiling a C program - c

Question

I am trying to compile this C program but I am getting this message
warning: passing 'int *' to parameter of type 'socklen_t *'
(aka 'unsigned int *') converts between pointers to integer types with
different sign [-Wpointer-sign]
if ((new_s = accept(s, (struct sockaddr *) &sin, &addr_len)) < 0) {
^~~~~~~~~
someone could help me?

As the error message states, you're passing an int * argument to accept for the last argument when the function expects a socklen_t * for this argument.
So change the type of addr_len to socklen_t.
