# Pastebin AZE5T7vB commit 3298caaf040876f7bf0ce22f33aeb562989951cf Author: Mark Rutland Date: Thu Jan 13 11:45:21 2022 +0000 treewide: use -Wdeclaration-after-statement In a subsequent patch we'll move the kernel from using `-std=gnu89` to `-std=gnu11`, permitting the use of additional C11 features such as for-loop initial declarations. One contentious aspect of C99 is that it permits mixed declarations and code, and for now at least, it seems preferable to enforce that declarations must come first. These warnings were already disabled in the kernel itself, but not for KBUILD_USERCFLAGS or the compat VDSO on arch/arm64, which uses a separate set of CFLAGS. This patch fixes an existing violation in modpost.c, which is not reported because of the missing flag in KBUILD_USERCFLAGS: | scripts/mod/modpost.c: In function ‘match’: | scripts/mod/modpost.c:837:3: warning: ISO C90 forbids mixed declarations and code [-Wdeclaration-after-statement] | 837 | const char *endp = p + strlen(p) - 1; | | ^~~~~ Signed-off-by: Mark Rutland [arnd: don't add a second warning to the default set, update changelog] Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann diff --git a/Makefile b/Makefile index 94fa9a849a7a..37ef6a555dcd 100644 --- a/Makefile +++ b/Makefile @@ -432,7 +432,8 @@ HOSTCXX = g++ endif export KBUILD_USERCFLAGS := -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wstrict-prototypes \ - -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -std=gnu89 + -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -std=gnu89 \ + -Wdeclaration-after-statement export KBUILD_USERLDFLAGS := KBUILD_HOSTCFLAGS := $(KBUILD_USERCFLAGS) $(HOST_LFS_CFLAGS) $(HOSTCFLAGS) diff --git a/arch/arm64/kernel/vdso32/Makefile b/arch/arm64/kernel/vdso32/Makefile index 9378ea055bf2..4164ae4fbe40 100644 --- a/arch/arm64/kernel/vdso32/Makefile +++ b/arch/arm64/kernel/vdso32/Makefile @@ -68,6 +68,7 @@ VDSO_CFLAGS += -Wall -Wundef -Wstrict-prototypes -Wno-trigraphs \ -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-common \ -Werror-implicit-function-declaration \ -Wno-format-security \ + -Wdeclaration-after-statement \ -std=gnu11 VDSO_CFLAGS += -O2 # Some useful compiler-dependent flags from top-level Makefile diff --git a/scripts/mod/modpost.c b/scripts/mod/modpost.c index 6bfa33217914..fe693304b120 100644 --- a/scripts/mod/modpost.c +++ b/scripts/mod/modpost.c @@ -833,8 +833,10 @@ static int match(const char *sym, const char * const pat[]) { const char *p; while (*pat) { + const char *endp; + p = *pat++; - const char *endp = p + strlen(p) - 1; + endp = p + strlen(p) - 1; /* "*foo*" */ if (*p == '*' && *endp == '*') {
