Subject: [PATCH 2/3] Kbuild: move to -std=gnu11
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
During a patch discussion, Linus brought up the option of changing
|
|
|
|
|
the C standard version from gnu89 to gnu99, which allows using variable
|
|
|
|
|
declaration inside of a for() loop. While the C99, C11 and later standards
|
|
|
|
|
introduce many other features, most of these are already available in
|
|
|
|
|
gnu89 as GNU extensions as well.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
An earlier attempt to do this when gcc-5 started defaulting to
|
|
|
|
|
-std=gnu11 failed because at the time that caused warnings about
|
|
|
|
|
designated initializers with older compilers. Now that gcc-5.1 is
|
|
|
|
|
the minimum compiler version used for building kernels, that is no
|
|
|
|
|
longer a concern. Similarly, the behavior of 'inline' functions changes
|
|
|
|
|
between gnu89 using gnu_inline behavior and gnu11 using standard c99+
|
|
|
|
|
behavior, but this was taken care of by defining 'inline' to include
|
|
|
|
|
__attribute__((gnu_inline)) in order to allow building with clang a
|
|
|
|
|
while ago.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Nathan Chancellor reported a new -Wdeclaration-after-statement
|
|
|
|
|
warning that appears in a system header on arm, this still needs a
|
|
|
|
|
workaround.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The differences between gnu99, gnu11, gnu1x and gnu17 are fairly
|
|
|
|
|
minimal and mainly impact warnings at the -Wpedantic level that the
|
|
|
|
|
kernel never enables. Between these, gnu11 is the newest version
|
|
|
|
|
that is supported by all supported compiler versions, though it is
|
|
|
|
|
only the default on gcc-5, while all other supported versions of
|
|
|
|
|
gcc or clang default to gnu1x/gnu17.
