The patch titled Subject: kbuild: disable -Wformat-truncation warnings by default has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was kbuild-disable-wformat-truncation-warnings-by-default.patch This patch was dropped because an alternative patch was merged ------------------------------------------------------ From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx> Subject: kbuild: disable -Wformat-truncation warnings by default With x86 allmodconfig, we currently get 233 -Wformat-truncation warnings, which makes the entire warnings rather useless. This turns off the warning by default, unless we specify W=1 or higher Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170714120720.906842-2-arnd@xxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- scripts/Makefile.extrawarn | 3 +++ 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+) diff -puN scripts/Makefile.extrawarn~kbuild-disable-wformat-truncation-warnings-by-default scripts/Makefile.extrawarn --- a/scripts/Makefile.extrawarn~kbuild-disable-wformat-truncation-warnings-by-default +++ a/scripts/Makefile.extrawarn @@ -67,5 +67,8 @@ KBUILD_CFLAGS += $(call cc-disable-warni KBUILD_CFLAGS += $(call cc-disable-warning, sign-compare) KBUILD_CFLAGS += $(call cc-disable-warning, format-zero-length) KBUILD_CFLAGS += $(call cc-disable-warning, uninitialized) +else +# noisy gcc-7 warnings +KBUILD_CFLAGS += $(call cc-option,-Wformat-truncation=0) endif endif _ Patches currently in -mm which might be from arnd@xxxxxxxx are kasan-avoid-wmaybe-uninitialized-warning.patch scsi-megaraid-fix-format-overflow-warning.patch scsi-mpt3sas-fix-format-overflow-warning.patch scsi-fusion-fix-string-overflow-warning.patch scsi-gdth-avoid-buffer-overflow-warning.patch scsi-fnic-fix-format-string-overflow-warning.patch scsi-gdth-increase-the-procfs-event-buffer-size.patch hwmon-applesmc-fix-format-string-overflow.patch platform-x86-alienware-wmi-fix-format-string-overflow-warning.patch block-dac960-shut-up-format-overflow-warning.patch fscache-fix-fscache_objlist_show-format-processing.patch ib-mlx4-fix-sprintf-format-warning.patch -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe mm-commits" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
