      perf: Enable more compiler warnings · 83a0944f
      Ingo Molnar 提交于
      Related to a shadowed variable bug fix Valdis Kletnieks noticed
      that perf does not get built with -Wshadow, which could have
      helped us avoid the bug.
      
      So enable -Wshadow and also enable the following warnings on
      perf builds, in addition to the already enabled -Wall -Wextra
      -std=gnu99 warnings:
      
       -Wcast-align
       -Wformat=2
       -Wshadow
       -Winit-self
       -Wpacked
       -Wredundant-decls
       -Wstack-protector
       -Wstrict-aliasing=3
       -Wswitch-default
       -Wswitch-enum
       -Wno-system-headers
       -Wundef
       -Wvolatile-register-var
       -Wwrite-strings
       -Wbad-function-cast
       -Wmissing-declarations
       -Wmissing-prototypes
       -Wnested-externs
       -Wold-style-definition
       -Wstrict-prototypes
       -Wdeclaration-after-statement
      
      And change/fix the perf code to build cleanly under GCC 4.3.2.
      
      The list of warnings enablement is rather arbitrary: it's based
      on my (quick) reading of the GCC manpages and trying them on
      perf.
      
      I categorized the warnings based on individually enabling them
      and looking whether they trigger something in the perf build.
      If i liked those warnings (i.e. if they trigger for something
      that arguably could be improved) i enabled the warning.
      
      If the warnings seemed to come from language laywers spamming
      the build with tons of nuisance warnings i generally kept them
      off. Most of the sign conversion related warnings were in
      this category. (A second patch enabling some of the sign
      warnings might be welcome - sign bugs can be nasty.)
      
      I also kept warnings that seem to make sense from their manpage
      description and which produced no actual warnings on our code
      base. These warnings might still be turned off if they end up
      being a nuisance.
      
      I also left out a few warnings that are not supported in older
      compilers.
      
      [ Note that these changes might break the build on older
        compilers i did not test, or on non-x86 architectures that
        produce different warnings, so more testing would be welcome. ]
