[PATCH v2 00/13] selftests: Fix build warnings and errors

[Guenter Roeck]

This series fixes build warnings and errors observed when trying to build
selftests.

v2: Emphasize that the patch series fixes build warnings and errors
    which are seen even if -Werror is not provided.
    Fix usage of cc-option.
    For "ignoring return value" warnings, use perror() to display an error
    message if the affected function returns an error.

Fix:

v2: Just using cc-option is insufficient since it is not defined,
    and if it is not defined it just disables the option entirely.
    Include Makefile.compiler and declare the function locally
    to solve the problem.

[PATCH v2 08/13] selftests: net: netlink-dumps: Avoid uninitialized variable warning

[Guenter Roeck]

The following warning is seen when building netlink-dumps.

netlink-dumps.c: In function ‘dump_extack’:
../kselftest_harness.h:788:35: warning: ‘ret’ may be used uninitialized

Problem is that the loop which initializes 'ret' may exit early without
initializing the variable if recv() returns an error. Always initialize
'ret' to solve the problem.
