Hello all; This is a final update to the previously reviewed changeset. I had to make one slight change in hotspot/src/os/bsd/vm/os_bsd.cpp to accommodate a problem which appeared since this process began.
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~mduigou/JDK-8030350/5/webrev/ This change will be integrated through the jdk9/hs-rt repos. From the original review request: > This is a change which enables additional compiler warnings for native > compilation when using GCC. The (-Wformat -Wformat-security) options are > supported by GCC 3.0.4 (the earliest version I checked, c. February 2002) and > later so we shouldn't see issues with incompatibility.- Wextra appears to > have been added in GCC 3.4.X line (c. 2004) so it should also be reasonably > well adopted and replaces -W. > > The core of the change is to add : > > -Wextra -Wno-unused -Wno-unused-parameter -Wformat=2 > > for general C and CC++ compilations. For HotSpot C++ compiles a slightly less > aggressive set is used: > > -Wformat=2 -Wno-error=format-nonliteral > > is used. > > This change is targeted at the JDK 9 repos but could be backported to JDK 8 > fairly easily/safely.
