Hi Linus, This one is not a bug fix; but it is not a new feature either... If you prefer changes like this one to be sent in the merge window, I will re-send it later on.
If this gets into v5.11, then Masahiro is planning to try to make the warning an error for v5.12. This commit has already triggered the discussion/fix of a couple of likely mistakes (or at least the addition of explanations for the omissions), which is a good thing. I left it in -next for a few more weeks than planned to see if (more) people complained about the warnings, but it has been quiet since then. Cheers, Miguel The following changes since commit b65054597872ce3aefbc6a666385eabdf9e288da: Linux 5.10-rc6 (2020-11-29 15:50:50 -0800) are available in the Git repository at: https://github.com/ojeda/linux.git tags/compiler-attributes-for-linus-v5.11 for you to fetch changes up to 1967939462641d8b36bcb3fcf06d48e66cd67a4f: Compiler Attributes: remove CONFIG_ENABLE_MUST_CHECK (2020-12-02 13:47:17 +0100) ---------------------------------------------------------------- An addition to compiler_attributes.h thanks to: - Remove CONFIG_ENABLE_MUST_CHECK (Masahiro Yamada) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Masahiro Yamada (1): Compiler Attributes: remove CONFIG_ENABLE_MUST_CHECK include/linux/compiler_attributes.h | 6 ++++++ include/linux/compiler_types.h | 6 ------ lib/Kconfig.debug | 8 -------- tools/testing/selftests/wireguard/qemu/debug.config | 1 - 4 files changed, 6 insertions(+), 15 deletions(-)
