Hi, GCC plugins should only exist when some compiler feature needs to be proven but does not exist in either GCC nor Clang. For example, if a desired feature is already in Clang, it should be added to GCC upstream. Document this explicitly. I'll put this in -next unless there are objections. :) Thanks! -Kees Kees Cook (2): gcc-plugins: Explicitly document purpose and deprecation schedule gcc-plugins: Remove cyc_complexity Documentation/kbuild/gcc-plugins.rst | 28 ++++++++- scripts/Makefile.gcc-plugins | 2 - scripts/gcc-plugins/Kconfig | 20 +----- scripts/gcc-plugins/cyc_complexity_plugin.c | 69 --------------------- security/Kconfig.hardening | 9 ++- 5 files changed, 34 insertions(+), 94 deletions(-) delete mode 100644 scripts/gcc-plugins/cyc_complexity_plugin.c -- 2.30.2
