May I suggest another definition for a warning being entirely sucks? "The warning is entirely sucks if and only if it never has true positives." In all other cases it's only more or less sucks, IMHO.
You're totally missing the point. False positives are not a minor annoyance, they're actively harmful as they hide other _useful_ warnings. So, you really want warnings to be about things that can and should be fixed. So you really should aim for _zero false positives_ even if you risk not detecting some real positives. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
