[RFC PATCH net-next v2 0/2] driver/net/ethernet W=1 by default

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

 



There is a movement to make the code base compile clean with W=1. Some
subsystems are already clean. In order to keep them clean, we need
developers to build new code with W=1 by default in these
subsystems. Otherwise new warnings will be added. To prove the point:

commit e666a4c668528ae1f5b8b3a2e7cb6a5be488dfbb

    Merge branch 'drivers-net-warning-clean'

    Jesse Brandeburg says:

    ====================
    make drivers/net/ethernet W=1 clean

Then 4 days later a new W=1 warning has added:

drivers/net/ethernet//chelsio/inline_crypto/ch_ktls/chcr_ktls.c: In function ‘chcr_ktls_cpl_set_tcb_rpl’:
drivers/net/ethernet//chelsio/inline_crypto/ch_ktls/chcr_ktls.c:684:22: warning: implicit conversion from ‘enum <anonymous>’ to ‘enum ch_ktls_open_state’ [-Wenum-conversion]
  684 |  tx_info->open_state = false;

This patchset refactors the core Makefile warning code to allow the
additional warnings W=1 adds available to any Makefile. The Ethernet
driver subsystem Makefiles then make use of this to make W=1 the
default for this subsystem.

v2:

Address the comment that we need to be able to add new W=1 compiler
flags without actually causing new warnings for builds which don't have W=1

Andrew Lunn (2):
  Makefile.extrawarn: Add symbol for W=1 warnings for today
  driver/net/ethernet: Sign up for W=1 as defined on 20200930
