I'd just like to understand it better; what compiler complains about this and is the warning otherwise useful? These things don't seem mentioned in that initial patch either. IOW I suppose I'm asking for the justification of this churn. If it's really needed and useful so be it, but so far I'm not seeing any. At a while guess I'd say this is something new in gcc-8 (and while I have that installed on some machines, it doesn't seem to be the default, and so I've not actually seen its output). But is the warning actually useful, should we not just kill the warning like we tend to do some really silly ones. _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
