The code diff looks good to me, but I'd like to be sure about git-log before applying it. As far as I tested, the statement "Clang will warn about unknown warnings but will not return false unless -Werror is set." does not seem true on recent versions. [1] When I use version 3.3 masahiro@grover:~$ clang --version clang version 3.3 (tags/RELEASE_33/final) Target: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu Thread model: posix masahiro@grover:~$ clang -foobar -c -x c /dev/null clang: warning: argument unused during compilation: '-foobar' masahiro@grover:~$ echo $? 0 [2] When I use version 3.4 masahiro@grover:~$ clang --version clang version 3.4 (tags/RELEASE_34/final) Target: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu Thread model: posix masahiro@grover:~$ clang -foobar -c -x c /dev/null clang: error: unknown argument: '-foobar' masahiro@grover:~$ echo $? 1 I agree we can apply this patch anyway even if the original motivation is not true anymore. Can you check it out, and add a little more comments if you agree? -- Best Regards Masahiro Yamada
