Clang 10 enables this by default with -Wtype-limit.
All of the instances flagged by this Werror so far have been
cases in which we really do want the compiler to optimize away
the test completely. Disabling the warning will avoid having
to add ifdefs to work around this.

While I proposed an alternative fix that was able to silence the most recent error without #if, I do like this approach better - the warning causes far more false positives than flagging actual bugs, especially when we write code to allow 32->32, 64->32, and 64->64 host->emulation paths, where one or more of those need the check but the others really do a tautological compare, by the nature of the types involved.

If there's an ordering requirement here we should make it clearer, or somebody is going to do the obvious "tidying up" at some point in the future. Perhaps this whole set of lines should be rearranged, something like: # Enable these warnings if the compiler supports them: warn_flags="-Wold-style-declaration -Wold-style-definition -Wtype-limits" warn_flags="-Wformat-security -Wformat-y2k -Winit-self -Wignored-qualifiers $warn_flags" warn_flags="-Wno-missing-include-dirs -Wempty-body -Wnested-externs $warn_flags" warn_flags="-Wendif-labels -Wexpansion-to-defined $warn_flags" # Now disable sub-types of warning we don't want but which are # enabled by some of the warning flags we do want; these must come # later in the compiler command line than the enabling warning options. nowarn_flags="-Wno-missing-include-dirs -Wno-shift-negative-value" nowarn_flags="-Wno-initializer-overrides $nowarn_flags" nowarn_flags="-Wno-string-plus-int -Wno-typedef-redefinition $nowarn_flags" warn_flags="$warn_flags $nowarn_flags" (is there a nicer shell idiom for creating a variable that's a long string of stuff without having over-long lines?) It's also tempting to pull the handful of warning related options currently set directly in QEMU_CFLAGS (-Wall, etc) into this same set of variables. thanks -- PMM

You could always do:
# Append $2 into the variable named $1, with space separation
add_to () {
eval $1=\${$1:+\"\$$1 \"}\$2
}
add_to warn_flags -Wold-style-declaration
add_to warn_flags -Wold-style-definition
add_to warn_flags -Wtype-limits
...
add_to nowarn_flags -Wno-string-plus-int
add_to nowarn_flags -Wno-typedef-redefinition
warn_flags="$warn_flags $nowarn_flags"

I support the ideas outlined above by Peter and Eric.
Especially I like "one line per flag" approach, implicitly introduced by Eric.
This is a very good opportunity to bring some order and beauty into
this, frankly, ugly piece of code.
