Subject: [PATCH stable 6.1 v2 3/5] perf build: Disable fewer bison warnings
Date: Wed, 20 May 2026 09:33:18 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260520163320.3073037-4-florian.fainelli@broadcom.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260520163320.3073037-1-florian.fainelli@broadcom.com>

From: Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com>

commit ddc8e4c966923ad1137790817157c8a5f0301aec upstream

If bison is version 3.8.2, reduce the number of bison C warnings
disabled. Earlier bison versions have all C warnings disabled. Avoid
implicit declarations of yylex by adding the declaration in the C
file. A header can't be included as a circular dependency would occur
due to the lexer using the bison defined tokens.

Committer notes:

Some recent versions of gcc and clang (noticed on Alpine Linux 3.17,
edge, clearlinux, fedora 37, etc.
