From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Harvey Harrison Subject: [RFC PATCH] kernel: add -D__CHECK_ENDIAN__ by default Date: Wed, 18 Feb 2009 13:33:01 -0800 Message-ID: <1234992781.31073.192.camel@brick> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Return-path: Received: from wf-out-1314.google.com ([209.85.200.170]:18817 "EHLO wf-out-1314.google.com" rhost-flags-OK-OK-OK-OK) by vger.kernel.org with ESMTP id S1752611AbZBRVdE (ORCPT ); Wed, 18 Feb 2009 16:33:04 -0500 Sender: linux-arch-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: To: Linus Torvalds , Andrew Morton Cc: linux-arch , LKML , Al Viro The noise level with endian checking is getting to the point where having this enabled by default wouldn't be too bad. If this were to go in for the 2.6.30 devel cycle it may motivate the last sections that are still particularly noisy (sound/, drivers/scsi/ come to mind) Signed-off-by: Harvey Harrison --- Makefile | 2 +- 1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) diff --git a/Makefile b/Makefile index 96628d0..4d4e400 100644 --- a/Makefile +++ b/Makefile @@ -326,7 +326,7 @@ PERL = perl CHECK = sparse CHECKFLAGS := -D__linux__ -Dlinux -D__STDC__ -Dunix -D__unix__ \ - -Wbitwise -Wno-return-void $(CF) + -D__CHECK_ENDIAN__ -Wbitwise -Wno-return-void $(CF) MODFLAGS = -DMODULE CFLAGS_MODULE = $(MODFLAGS) AFLAGS_MODULE = $(MODFLAGS) -- 1.6.2.rc1.175.g96b8a
