The quilt patch titled Subject: arch: turn off -Werror for architectures with known warnings has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was arch-turn-off-werror-for-architectures-with-known-warnings.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-nonmm-stable branch of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm ------------------------------------------------------ From: "Arnd Bergmann" <arnd@xxxxxxxx> Subject: arch: turn off -Werror for architectures with known warnings Date: Thu, 30 Nov 2023 09:07:38 +0100 A couple of architectures enable -Werror for their own files regardless of CONFIG_WERROR but also have known warnings that fail the build with -Wmissing-prototypes enabled by default: arch/alpha/lib/memcpy.c:153:8: error: no previous prototype for 'memcpy' [-Werror=missing-prototypes] arch/alpha/kernel/irq.c:96:1: error: no previous prototype for 'handle_irq' [-Werror=missing-prototypes] arch/mips/kernel/signal.c:673:17: error: no previous prototype for â??sys_rt_sigreturnâ??

[-Wmissing-prototypes] arch/sparc/prom/misc_64.c:165:5: warning: no previous prototype for â??prom_get_mmu_ihandleâ?? [-Wmissing-prototypes] This appears to be an artifact from the times when this architecture code was better maintained that most device drivers and before CONFIG_WERROR was added. Now it just gets in the way, so remove all of these. Powerpc and x86 both still have their own Kconfig options to enable -Werror for some of their files. These architectures are better maintained than most and the options are easy to disable, so leave those untouched.
