[edk2] [PATCH 0/3] BaseTools: let the C-language build utils compile with gcc-8
Posted by Laszlo Ersek 6 years, 9 months ago
Repo:   https://github.com/lersek/edk2.git
Branch: basetools_gcc8

Once these patches are applied to the build flags and the source code of
the build utilities themselves, OVMF builds fine with gcc-8, using the
GCC5 toolchain settings without any changes.

Regression-tested with gcc-4.8 / x86_64.

  We just find this change causes XCODE5 build failure, because XCODE compiler doesn't know these two options. So, could you provide the patch to remove the change in BUILD_CFLAGS for MAC?

Yep, I was a bit concerned about that.

Ultimately I assumed that
- clang would either recognize these warnings options (because it does
  recognize most -W options of gcc),
- or, similarly to gcc, clang would simply ignore -Wno-* flags that it
  does not recognize.

Neither appears to be the case, then. I'll send a patch soon.

Thanks, and sorry about the regression.

What is the reason we don't pass -Wno-unknown-warning-option to XCODE ?

My personal reason is that I simply didn't think of
"-Wno-unknown-warning-option", for either XCODE or GCC. I just added the
two new -Wno-xxx options to the GCC command line, tested them with
gcc-4.8 (which knows neither of those options), and gcc-4.8 didn't
complain, without needing any further massaging from my side. I assumed
"ignore unknown -Wno-xxx options" was the default (vaguely recalling
something like this from an earlier patch of yours -- apparently
incorrectly?), and that the same would apply to XCODE too.

Thanks
Laszlo
