Subject: [PATCH 6/6] kbuild: Enable -Wtautological-compare
Date: Tue, 18 Feb 2020 21:54:23 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200219045423.54190-7-natechancellor@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200219045423.54190-1-natechancellor@gmail.com>
Currently, we disable -Wtautological-compare, which in turn disables a
bunch of more specific tautological comparison warnings that are useful
for the kernel (see clang's documentation below). Now that all of the
major/noisy warnings have been fixed, enable -Wtautological-compare so
that more issues can be caught at build time.
-Wtautological-constant-out-of-range-compare is kept disabled because
there are places in the kernel where a constant or variable size can
change based on the kernel configuration; these are not fixed in a
clean/concise way and they are almost always harmless so this one
subwarning is kept disabled.
