From 33612fdb924f8adab3523cf9388ed969f6f5f77e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?utf8?q?Petr=20=C5=A0tetiar?= Date: Wed, 24 May 2023 09:46:45 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] kernel: introduce KERNEL_WERROR config option MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit In commit b2d1eb717b65 ("generic: 5.15: enable Werror by default for kernel compile") CONFIG_WERROR=y was enabled and all warnings/errors reported with GCC 12 were fixed. Keeping this in sync with past/future GCC versions is going to be uphill battle, so lets introduce new KERNEL_WERROR config option, enable it by default only for tested/known working combinations and on buildbots.
