Kbuild supports 3 levels of extra warnings, and multiple levels can be combined, like W=12, W=123. It was added by commit a6de553da01c ("kbuild: Allow to combine multiple W= levels"). >From the log of commit 8654cb8d0371 ("dtc: update warning settings for new bus and node/property name checks"), I assume: - unit_address_vs_reg, simple_bus_reg, etc. belong to level 1 - node_name_chars_strict, property_name_chars_strict belong to level 2 However, the level 1 warnings are displayed by any argument to W=. On the other hand, the level 2 warnings are displayed by W=2, but not by W=12, or W=123. Use $(findstring ...) like scripts/Makefile.extrawarn. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- Side Notes for possible additional works: [1] I implemented DTC extra warnings differently in U-Boot: https://github.com/u-boot/u-boot/blob/v2018.01/scripts/Makefile.extrawarn#L64 Better to collect extra warning stuff into scripts/Makefile.extrawarn ? [2] KBUILD_ENABLE_EXTRA_GCC_CHECKS is getting a historical misnomer because we use it for Clang and DTC too. Better to rename? (keeping backward-compatibility for a while)? scripts/Makefile.lib | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/scripts/Makefile.lib b/scripts/Makefile.lib index 1ca4dcd..7dee1da 100644 --- a/scripts/Makefile.lib +++ b/scripts/Makefile.lib @@ -264,7 +264,7 @@ cmd_gzip = (cat $(filter-out FORCE,$^) | gzip -n -f -9 > $@) || \ DTC ?= $(objtree)/scripts/dtc/dtc # Disable noisy checks by default -ifeq ($(KBUILD_ENABLE_EXTRA_GCC_CHECKS),) +ifeq ($(findstring 1,$(KBUILD_ENABLE_EXTRA_GCC_CHECKS)),) DTC_FLAGS += -Wno-unit_address_vs_reg \ -Wno-simple_bus_reg \ -Wno-unit_address_format \ @@ -273,7 +273,7 @@ DTC_FLAGS += -Wno-unit_address_vs_reg \ -Wno-pci_device_reg endif -ifeq ($(KBUILD_ENABLE_EXTRA_GCC_CHECKS),2) +ifneq ($(findstring 2,$(KBUILD_ENABLE_EXTRA_GCC_CHECKS)),) DTC_FLAGS += -Wnode_name_chars_strict \ -Wproperty_name_chars_strict endif -- 2.7.4 -- 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
