Hi list,
I've compiled glusterfs with gcc 7.x (to be precise, with 7.1.1),
which is soon to get its prime time as the C compiler of
Fedora 26.
The Release Notes (https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-7/changes.html )
give account of a broad list of new and improved warnings...
and that shows. While with gcc 6.x the only warning I had
is "lchmod is not implemented and will always fail", with
gcc 7.x I got 218 warnings alltogether. For reference, I
attach the excerpted warnings from the compilation output.
Went through the logs, and I see it is in project's interest to fix them.
Technically, fixing these warnings would be good to reduce our coverity
warnings too in many cases. I am all for it.
warnings too in many cases. I am all for it.
Are you aware of this? Is there any plan what to do about it?
I was not aware of it. Thanks for pointing it out. I propose we to fix it before 4.0 release branch out, and start having gcc7.x job compiling as part of smoke.
We can keep the smoke job non-voting till some time, and can turn the knob ON someday, say October 15th for start voting -1 on any warnings. Others, any comments?
Csaba, please open a github issue for it, also attach the log there. Thanks
Regards,
Amar
