Linux kernel source tree
5d40c038c8
icecc is a compiler wrapper that distributes compile jobs over a build farm [1]. It works by sending toolchain binaries and preprocessed source code to remote machines. Unfortunately using it with BPF selftests causes build failures due to a clang bug [2]. The problem is that clang suppresses the -Wunused-value warning if the unused expression comes from a macro expansion. Since icecc compiles preprocessed source code, this information is not available. This leads to -Wunused-value false positives. obj_new_no_struct() and obj_new_acq() use the bpf_obj_new() macro and discard the result. arena_spin_lock_slowpath() uses two macros that produce values and ignores the results. Add (void) casts to explicitly indicate that this is intentional and suppress the warning. An alternative solution is to change the macros to not produce values. This would work today for the arena_spin_lock_slowpath() issue, but in the future there may appear users who need them. Another potential solution is to replace these macros with functions. Unfortunately this would not work, because these macros work with unknown types and control flow.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
