FWIW, testing on ARM with gcc-6.0 -O3, I also get tons of maybe-uninitialized warnings. It's unlikely that this is architecture specific or fixed in newer compiler versions. > The following nested construct actually works - does that look OK to you ? > > ARCH_CFLAGS += -O3 $(call cc-ifversion, -lt, 0408, $(call cc-disable-warning,maybe-uninitialized,)) Yes, that seems ok. I don't really understand why -O3 is needed though, maybe it's better to assume that it won't be needed in future gcc versions and do ARCH_CFLAGS += $(call cc-ifversion, -lt, 0408, -O3 $(call cc-disable-warning,maybe-uninitialized,)) Arnd -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kbuild" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
