[PATCH 17/17] [RFC] Makefile.extrawarn: turn on missing-prototypes again
From: Arnd Bergmann
Date: Thu Aug 10 2023 - 10:25:27 EST
From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx>
Over the years we went from > 1000 of warnings to under 100 earlier
this year, and I sent patches to address all the ones that I saw with
compile testing randcom configs on arm64, arm and x86 kernels. This is a
really useful warning, as it catches real bugs when there are mismatched
prototypes. In particular with kernel control flow integrity enabled,
those are no longer allowed.
Move the options out of the W=1 section to have them enabled by
default.

I'm sure there are still regressions with CONFIG_WERROR when this gets
turned on, but it's getting very close, so it might be best to already
enable this in linux-next but wait one extra merge window to have it in
mainline while the last fixes trickle in.
