From 3a176b94609a18f5f8bac7ddbf8923bd737262db Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Masahiro Yamada Date: Tue, 29 Dec 2020 15:14:28 -0800 Subject: Revert "kbuild: avoid static_assert for genksyms" This reverts commit 14dc3983b5dff513a90bd5a8cc90acaf7867c3d0. Macro Elver had sent a fix proper fix earlier, and also pointed out corner cases: "I guess what you propose is simpler, but might still have corner cases where we still get warnings. In particular, if some file (for whatever reason) does not include build_bug.h and uses a raw _Static_assert(), then we still get warnings. E.g. I see 1 user of raw _Static_assert() (drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgv_sriovmsg.h )." I believe the raw use of _Static_assert() should be allowed, so this should be fixed in genksyms. Even after commit 14dc3983b5df ("kbuild: avoid static_assert for genksyms"), I confirmed the following test code emits the warning. ---------------->8---------------- #include _Static_assert((1 ?: 0), ""); void foo(void) { } EXPORT_SYMBOL(foo); ---------------->8---------------- WARNING: modpost: EXPORT symbol "foo" [vmlinux] version generation failed, symbol will not be versioned. Now that commit 869b91992bce ("genksyms: Ignore module scoped _Static_assert()") fixed this issue properly, the workaround should be reverted.
