Hello,
I noticed the following warnings while building the upstream kernel as of yesterday.
The commit I checked out at was cac7f2429872d3 : Linux 3.18-rc2.
Please verify if any of these can be fixed.
a. lib/cpumask.c: In function ‘cpumask_set_cpu_local_first’:
lib/cpumask.c:194:25: warning: the address of ‘cpu_all_bits’ will always evaluate as ‘true’ [-Waddress]
if (numa_node == -1 || !cpumask_of_node(numa_node)) {
b. drivers/infiniband/hw/ehca/ehca_mrmw.c: In function ‘ehca_set_pagebuf’:
drivers/infiniband/hw/ehca/ehca_mrmw.c:1907:6: warning: ‘prev_pgaddr’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
if (pgaddr - PAGE_SIZE != *prev_pgaddr) {
