From: Linus Torvalds Date: Thu, 19 Mar 2009 18:10:17 +0000 (-0700) Subject: Add '-fwrapv' to gcc CFLAGS X-Git-Tag: v2.6.29~20 X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=68df3755e383e6fecf2354a67b08f92f18536594;p=pandora-kernel.git Add '-fwrapv' to gcc CFLAGS This makes sure that gcc doesn't try to optimize away wrapping arithmetic, which the kernel occasionally uses for overflow testing, ie things like if (ptr + offset < ptr) which technically is undefined for non-unsigned types. See http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12597 for details. Not all versions of gcc support it, so we need to make it conditional (it looks like it was introduced in gcc-3.4).
