Hi,

the command line option -Wattribute-alias (w/o the "=1") is currently broken,
and only -Wno-attribute-alias is still working, but what is worse, is that
the #pragma GCC diagnostic fails to recognize the string "-Wattribute-alias",
as it used to do in gcc-8, which breaks the linux warning suppression macro
because it relies on a _Pragma to work.

I'm surprised by this, since I have not seen the warning in a while. I am
however still using gcc-8.1 locally. Did this change later during the
gcc-8 branch?


Yes.

The -Wattribute-alias was split up in -Wattribute-alias=1 an -Wattribute-alias=2
and -Wmissing-attributes on gcc-trunk (but not in the gcc-8 branch as far as I 
know).

The -Wmissing-attribute also triggers in include/linux/module.h but for that 
one,
I will probably have to send a patch to the linux-kernel list.

Miguel Ojeda has been working with me on the kernel changes.

Martin
