The gcc that comes with either Debian (gcc 8.3.0) or Ubuntu (gcc 9.2.1),
depending on what I use that day.
I agree that defconfig isnât very interesting. But it is the metric that
Linus used when he recently declared his warning mandate:
"we don't have any warnings in the default buildâ
If I do a x86_64 build with a very large config, I get 1139 warnings. The
config I used is:
https://github.com/zzywysm/linux-kernel-compile-warnings/blob/master/almostallconfig-5.6rc3
And the warnings can be found at:
https://github.com/zzywysm/linux-kernel-compile-warnings/blob/master/warninglog-5.6rc3
(Also, thank you Randy for fixing some of these warnings already!)
