I just see the following warnings with linux-next: $ make CC="ccache gcc" W=1 drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/htt_tx.o CC [M] drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/htt_tx.o In file included from drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/htt_tx.c:19: drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/htt.h:1727:1: warning: alignment 1 of ‘struct ath10k_htt_txbuf_32’ is less than 4 [-Wpacked-not-aligned] } __packed; ^ drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/htt.h:1734:1: warning: alignment 1 of ‘struct ath10k_htt_txbuf_64’ is less than 4 [-Wpacked-not-aligned] } __packed; ^ In my Makefile I have: KBUILD_CFLAGS += $(call cc-option,-Wimplicit-fallthrough=3,) Thanks -- Gustavo
