[PATCH v2] Makefile: detect compiler and enable more warnings in DEVELOPER=1

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The set of extra warnings we enable when DEVELOPER has to be
conservative because we can't assume any compiler version the
developer may use. Detect the compiler version so we know when it's
safe to enable -Wextra and maybe more.

These warning settings are mostly from my custom config.mak a long
time ago when I tried to enable as many warnings as possible that can
still build without showing warnings. Some of them those warnings are
probably worth fixing instead of just suppressing in future.

 v2 improves a bit over v1:

 - apple clang support (though I suspect we may want to make it a
   separate compiler family since apple clang has different
   versioning, but I can't and won't work on that front)

 - support CC='ccache gcc' (yes it breaks now if you have spaces in
   your cc path)

 - allow to skip detect-compiler by setting COMPILER_FEATURES in
   config.mak

 I notice Ramsay is working on clean -Wmaybe-uninitialized, if his
 series is merged first I'll stop disabling it here.
