When the ink dries on the C23 language spec and the implementations figure out how to interpret it then sure, enforce the warning for new code -- the cost/benefit analysis is straight forward. However, the case for patching existing mature code is another story. _______________________________________________ Linux-mediatek mailing list Linux-mediatek@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-mediatek
