Subject: [PATCH] kbuild: add macro for controlling warnings to
linux/compiler.h
I have occasionally run into a situation where it would make sense to
control a compiler warning from a source file rather than doing so from
a Makefile using the $(cc-disable-warning, ...) or $(cc-option, ...)
helpers.
The approach here is similar to what glibc uses, using __diag() and
related macros to encapsulate a _Pragma("GCC diagnostic ...") statement
that gets turned into the respective "#pragma GCC diagnostic ..." by
the preprocessor when the macro gets expanded.
Like glibc, I also have an argument to pass the affected compiler
version, but decided to actually evaluate that one. For now, this
supports GCC_4_6, GCC_4_7, GCC_4_8, GCC_4_9, GCC_5, GCC_6, GCC_7,
GCC_8 and GCC_9. Adding support for CLANG_5 and other interesting
versions is straightforward here. GNU compilers starting with gcc-4.2
could support it in principle, but "#pragma GCC diagnostic push"
was only added in gcc-4.6, so it seems simpler to not deal with those
at all. The same versions show a large number of warnings already,
so it seems easier to just leave it at that and not do a more
fine-grained control for them.
The use cases I found so far include:
- turning off the gcc-8 -Wattribute-alias warning inside of the
SYSCALL_DEFINEx() macro without having to do it globally.
- Reducing the build time for a simple re-make after a change,
once we move the warnings from ./Makefile and
./scripts/Makefile.extrawarn into linux/compiler.h
- More control over the warnings based on other configurations,
using preprocessor syntax instead of Makefile syntax. This should make
it easier for the average developer to understand and change things.
- Adding an easy way to turn the W=1 option on unconditionally
for a subdirectory or a specific file. This has been requested
by several developers in the past that want to have their subsystems
W=1 clean.
- Integrating clang better into the build systems. Clang supports
more warnings than GCC, and we probably want to classify them
as default, W=1, W=2 etc, but there are cases in which the
warnings should be classified differently due to excessive false
positives from one or the other compiler.
- Adding a way to turn the default warnings into errors (e.g. using
a new "make E=0" tag) while not also turning the W=1 warnings into
errors.
This patch for now just adds the minimal infrastructure in order to
do the first of the list above. As the #pragma GCC diagnostic
takes precedence over command line options, the next step would be
to convert a lot of the individual Makefiles that set nonstandard
options to use __diag() instead.
[paul.burton@mips.com:
- Rebase atop current master.
- Add __diag_GCC, or more generally __diag_<compiler>, abstraction to
avoid code outside of linux/compiler-gcc.h needing to duplicate
knowledge about different GCC versions.
- Add a comment argument to __diag_{ignore,warn,error} which isn't
used in the expansion of the macros but serves to push people to
document the reason for using them - per feedback from Kees Cook.
- Translate severity to GCC-specific pragmas in linux/compiler-gcc.h
rather than using GCC-specific in linux/compiler_types.h.
- Drop all but GCC 8 macros, since we only need to define macros for
versions that we need to introduce pragmas for, and as of this
series that's just GCC 8.
- Capitalize comments in linux/compiler-gcc.h to match the style of
the rest of the file.
- Line up macro definitions with tabs in linux/compiler-gcc.h.]

Subject: [PATCH] disable -Wattribute-alias warning for SYSCALL_DEFINEx()
gcc-8 warns for every single definition of a system call entry
point, e.g.:
include/linux/compat.h:56:18: error: 'compat_sys_rt_sigprocmask' alias between functions of incompatible types 'long int(int, compat_sigset_t *, compat_sigset_t *, compat_size_t)' {aka 'long int(int, struct <anonymous> *, struct <anonymous> *, unsigned int)'} and 'long int(long int, long int, long int, long int)' [-Werror=attribute-alias]

^~~~~~~~~~
include/linux/compat.h:45:2: note: in expansion of macro 'COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx'
COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx(4, _##name, __VA_ARGS__)
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
kernel/signal.c:2601:1: note: in expansion of macro 'COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE4'
COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE4(rt_sigprocmask, int, how, compat_sigset_t __user *, nset,
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
include/linux/compat.h:60:18: note: aliased declaration here
asmlinkage long compat_SyS##name(__MAP(x,__SC_LONG,__VA_ARGS__))\
^~~~~~~~~~
The new warning seems reasonable in principle, but it doesn't
help us here, since we rely on the type mismatch to sanitize the
system call arguments. After I reported this as GCC PR82435, a new
-Wno-attribute-alias option was added that could be used to turn the
warning off globally on the command line, but I'd prefer to do it a
little more fine-grained.
Interestingly, turning a warning off and on again inside of
a single macro doesn't always work, in this case I had to add
an extra statement inbetween and decided to copy the __SC_TEST
one from the native syscall to the compat syscall macro. See
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=83256 for more details
about this.

- Rebase atop current master.
- Split GCC & version arguments to __diag_ignore() in order to match
changes to the preceding patch.
