[PATCH 0/1] Add format attribute to enable printf warnings

From: Alviro Iskandar Setiawan
Date: Mon May 09 2022 - 03:04:42 EST


Hi Ammar,

When we use printf and fprintf functions from nolibc, we don't get any
warning from the compiler if we have wrong arguments, for example the
following calls will compile silently:
```
printf("%s %s\n", "aaa");
fprintf(stdout, "%s %s\n", "xxx", 1);
```
Those calls are undefined behavior. We can catch it at compile time by
adding format attribute to those function declarations. After this
patch, we get the following warnings:
```
warning: format `%s` expects a matching `char *` argument [-Wformat=]
warning: format `%s` expects argument of type `char *`, but argument 4 has type `int` [-Wformat=]
```
