I agree with Olivier's comments, it's good to document this stuff.  Also the 
updated patch will remove the IA32, X64, and IPF rules for RVCT since this 
toolchain does not support these architectures.

I'm working through other merge out issues at the moment so when I get past 
these I will provide the updated patch.

Thanks, Martin & Eugene.

Eugene, would you like to update your patch to add this kind of correlation 
description about the warning number & messages as Martin's comments?

If I was the CryptoPkg maintainer I would probably request to add the 
correlation between the warning numbers and their associated warning messages.

I did that for SctPkg:
# 167:  "argument of type <type1> is incompatible with parameter of type # 
<type2>"
#       (caused here by passing typed pointers to functions that take "void *" 
or "void **")
# 1295: "provide arguments" (i.e. `UINTN Function ()` should be `UINTN Function 
(VOID)`)
# 188:  "enumerated type mixed with another type"
#       (i.e. passing an integer as an enum without a cast)
# 550:  "variable <var> was set but never used"
# 1:    "last line of file ends without a newline"
# 68:   "integer conversion resulted in a change of sign" ("if (Status == -1)")
# 111:  "statement is unreachable" (invariably "break;" after "return X;" in 
case statement)
# 177:  "function <static function> was declared but never referenced"
  RVCT:*_*_ARM_CC_FLAGS    = --diag_remark=167 
--diag_suppress=167,1295,188,550,1,68,111,177

That would help the maintainer to remove a warning id when it should have been 
fixed into OpenSslLib source code.


Nothing to do with this patch, but it's interesting to see RVCT (ARM RealView 
Toolchain) supporting IA32/X64/IPF architectures.

The ARM toolchain definitions are configured to treat warnings as errors.  The 
openssl code has numerous warnings so this patch tells the ARM RVCT compiler to 
ignore those warnings.  This patch also fixes an issue where the openssl 
compiler flags were not being provided for the RVCT toolchain.

I'm not sure if we have a channel back to openssl developers but it would be 
best if the code could get cleaned up so the warnings could be eliminated 
entirely.
