[PATCH v2 0/2] selftests/lib.mk: LLVM=1, CC=clang, and warnings
From: John Hubbard
Date: Fri May 31 2024 - 14:38:09 EST
The kselftests may be built in a couple different ways:
make LLVM=1
make CC=clang
In order to handle both cases, set LLVM=1 if CC=clang. That way,the rest
of lib.mk, and any Makefiles that include lib.mk, can base decisions
solely on whether or not LLVM is set.
Then, build upon that to disable a pair of clang warnings that are
already silenced on gcc.
Doing it this way is much better than the piecemeal approach that I
started with in [1] and [2]. Thanks to Nathan Chancellor for the patch
reviews that led to this approach.
Changes since the first version:
1) Wrote a detailed explanation for suppressing two clang warnings, in
both a lib.mk comment, and the commit description.
2) Added a Reviewed-by tag to the first patch.
