There is unfortunately no central reference for Clang warning flags. The closest I've found is http://clang.llvm.org/docs/UsersManual.html#options-to-control-error-and-warning-messages but it omits most of them. Flags of the form -Wno-* disable warnings, usually because the code in question is vendor code we don't want to touch, a mess no one want's to clean up, or both. You should generally avoid them. I'm confused why you talk about optimization in the context of these flags. They have no impact on code generation. -- Brooks
