Add a 'W=1' Makefile switch which adds additional checking per build object. The idea behind this option is targeted at developers who, in the process of writing their code, want to do the occasional make W=1 [target.o] and let gcc do more extensive code checking for them. Then, they could eyeball the output for valid gcc warnings about various bugs/discrepancies which are not reported during the normal build process. For more background information and a use case, read through this thread: http://marc.info/?l=kernel-janitors&m=129802065918147&w=2 -v4: Enable this for gcc only. Also, check for options which are not supported by every gcc version we use to build the kernel. Adding those checks for _every_ option slows down the build noticeably so be sensible here and add it only when your gcc version chokes on a particular option. -v[2..3]: move to Makefile.build Cc: Michal Marek <mmarek@xxxxxxx> Cc: Sam Ravnborg <sam@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: linux-kbuild@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Acked-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@xxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Borislav Petkov <bp@xxxxxxxxx> --- Makefile | 6 ++++++ scripts/Makefile.build | 37 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++- 2 files changed, 42 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) diff --git a/Makefile b/Makefile index c9c8c8f..c3bca9c 100644 --- a/Makefile +++ b/Makefile @@ -102,6 +102,11 @@ ifeq ("$(origin O)", "command line") KBUILD_OUTPUT := $(O) endif +ifeq ("$(origin W)", "command line") + KBUILD_ENABLE_EXTRA_GCC_CHECKS = 1 + export KBUILD_ENABLE_EXTRA_GCC_CHECKS +endif + # That's our default target when none is given on the command line PHONY := _all _all: @@ -1262,6 +1267,7 @@ help: @echo ' make O=dir [targets] Locate all output files in "dir", including .config' @echo ' make C=1 [targets] Check all c source with $$CHECK (sparse by default)' @echo ' make C=2 [targets] Force check of all c source with $$CHECK' + @echo ' make W=1 [targets] Enable extra gcc checks' @echo '' @echo 'Execute "make" or "make all" to build all targets marked with [*] ' @echo 'For further info see the ./README file' diff --git a/scripts/Makefile.build b/scripts/Makefile.build index 4eb99ab..fa4b40d 100644 --- a/scripts/Makefile.build +++ b/scripts/Makefile.build @@ -49,6 +49,42 @@ ifeq ($(KBUILD_NOPEDANTIC),) $(error CFLAGS was changed in "$(kbuild-file)".
