From 6347bdb31448f812cd726cfb3cdcdecf41a38b19 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tom Lane Date: Sun, 5 Apr 2015 13:01:55 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] Suppress clang's unhelpful gripes about -pthread switch being unused. Considering the number of cases in which "unused" command line arguments are silently ignored by compilers, it's fairly astonishing that anybody thought this warning was useful; it's certainly nothing but an annoyance when building Postgres. One such case is that neither gcc nor clang complain about unrecognized -Wno-foo switches, making it more difficult to figure out whether the switch does anything than one could wish. Back-patch to 9.3, which is as far back as the patch applies conveniently (we'd have to back-patch PGAC_PROG_CC_VAR_OPT to go further, and it doesn't seem worth that). --- configure | 66 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ configure.in | 7 ++++++ 2 files changed, 73 insertions(+) diff --git a/configure b/configure index 973881c0fe7..68e84b387e5 100755 --- a/configure +++ b/configure @@ -4503,6 +4503,72 @@ if test x"$pgac_cv_prog_cc_cflags__ftree_vectorize" = x"yes"; then CFLAGS_VECTOR="${CFLAGS_VECTOR} -ftree-vectorize" fi + # We want to suppress clang's unhelpful unused-command-line-argument warnings + # but gcc won't complain about unrecognized -Wno-foo switches, so we have to + # test for the positive form and if that works, add the negative form + { $as_echo "$as_me:$LINENO: checking whether $CC supports -Wunused-command-line-argument" >&5 +$as_echo_n "checking whether $CC supports -Wunused-command-line-argument...
