[PATCH 4/6] [v3] kbuild: enable -Wformat-truncation on clang
From: Arnd Bergmann
Date: Mon Apr 15 2024 - 08:22:23 EST
From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx>
This warning option still produces output on gcc but is now clean when
building with clang, so enable it conditionally on the compiler for now.
As far as I can tell, the remaining warnings with gcc are the result of
analysing the code more deeply across inlining, while clang only does
this within a function.
