X-Received-From: 2001:8b0:1d0::2 Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH] atomic.h: Work around gcc spurious "unused value" warning X-BeenThere: qemu-devel@nongnu.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.21 Precedence: list List-Id: List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , Cc: Paolo Bonzini , Richard Henderson , patches@linaro.org Errors-To: qemu-devel-bounces+importer=patchew.org@nongnu.org Sender: "Qemu-devel" X-ZohoMail: RSF_0 Z_629925259 SPT_0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" Some versions of gcc produce a spurious warning if the result of __atomic_compare_echange_n() is not used and the type involved is a signed 8 bit value: error: value computed is not used [-Werror=3Dunused-value] This has been seen on at least gcc (Ubuntu 5.4.0-6ubuntu1~16.04.9) 5.4.0 20160609 Work around this by using an explicit cast to void to indicate that we don't care about the return value. We don't currently use our atomic_cmpxchg() macro on any signed 8 bit types, but the upcoming support for the Arm v8.1-Atomics will require it. Signed-off-by: Peter Maydell Reviewed-by: Philippe Mathieu-Daud=C3=A9 Reviewed-by: Richard Henderson --- Sending out my workaround as an actual patch. If this is OK I'll put in via target-arm.next as it's a dependency for the v8.1-atomics series. include/qemu/atomic.h | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/include/qemu/atomic.h b/include/qemu/atomic.h index d73c9e14d7..9ed39effd3 100644 --- a/include/qemu/atomic.h +++ b/include/qemu/atomic.h @@ -187,7 +187,7 @@ /* Returns the eventual value, failed or not */ #define atomic_cmpxchg__nocheck(ptr, old, new) ({ \ typeof_strip_qual(*ptr) _old =3D (old); \ - __atomic_compare_exchange_n(ptr, &_old, new, false, \ + (void)__atomic_compare_exchange_n(ptr, &_old, new, false, \ __ATOMIC_SEQ_CST, __ATOMIC_SEQ_CST); \ _old; \ }) --=20 2.17.0
