Probably, and at the same time we keep our hand on the pulse of the changes, right? Adding those warnings to W=1, 2, ... block might be not the bad idea after all. Maybe some flag CONFIG_DEBUG_WERROR ? Then CIs or other early stage users can enable by default and be informed. -- With Best Regards, Andy Shevchenko
