Thanks for clarifying. 

I checked GCC behavior and it is less strict. For the example below, it 
silently accepts the interrupt attribute.

extern int foo2();
__attribute__((interrupt)) void foo();
void foo() {
  foo2();
}

while in LLVM we would be rejecting with the message: 
RISC-V 'interrupt' attribute only applies to functions that have no parameters. 

I find the reuse of the message confusing. 

If we want stricter rule then we probably also need a specific message for the  
missing prototype.
