Обсуждение: compile warnings in CVS HEAD?
I'm seeing the following with the current CVS code on my Linux dev box: $ make maintainer-clean $ ./configure --enable-depend --enable-cassert --enable-debug --prefix=/pgsql --with-openssl [ ... ] $ make -s In file included from bootparse.y:340: lex.Int_yy.c:1832: warning: no previous prototype for `Int_yyget_lineno' lex.Int_yy.c:1841: warning: no previous prototype for `Int_yyget_in' lex.Int_yy.c:1849: warning: no previous prototype for `Int_yyget_out' lex.Int_yy.c:1857: warning: no previous prototype for `Int_yyget_leng' lex.Int_yy.c:1866: warning: no previous prototype for `Int_yyget_text' lex.Int_yy.c:1875: warning: no previous prototype for `Int_yyset_lineno' lex.Int_yy.c:1887: warning: no previous prototype for `Int_yyset_in' lex.Int_yy.c:1892: warning: no previous prototype for `Int_yyset_out' lex.Int_yy.c:1897: warning: no previous prototype for `Int_yyget_debug' lex.Int_yy.c:1902: warning: no previous prototype for `Int_yyset_debug' lex.Int_yy.c:1908: warning: no previous prototype for `Int_yylex_destroy' In file included from gram.y:8094: scan.c:6021: warning: no previous prototype for `base_yyget_lineno' scan.c:6030: warning: no previous prototype for `base_yyget_in' scan.c:6038: warning: no previous prototype for `base_yyget_out' scan.c:6046: warning: no previous prototype for `base_yyget_leng' scan.c:6055: warning: no previous prototype for `base_yyget_text' scan.c:6064: warning: no previous prototype for `base_yyset_lineno' scan.c:6076: warning: no previous prototype for `base_yyset_in' scan.c:6081: warning: no previous prototype for `base_yyset_out' scan.c:6086: warning: no previous prototype for `base_yyget_debug' scan.c:6091: warning: no previous prototype for `base_yyset_debug' scan.c:6097: warning: no previous prototype for `base_yylex_destroy' tablecmds.c: In function `validateForeignKeyConstraint': tablecmds.c:3546: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-a liasing rules execQual.c: In function `ExecMakeFunctionResult': execQual.c:737: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-ali asing rules execQual.c: In function `ExecMakeTableFunctionResult': execQual.c:983: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-ali asing rules proc.c: In function `enable_sig_alarm': proc.c:1016: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasi ng rules proc.c: In function `disable_sig_alarm': proc.c:1057: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasi ng rules proc.c: In function `CheckStatementTimeout': proc.c:1123: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasi ng rules In file included from guc.c:4390: lex.GUC_yy.c:1586: warning: no previous prototype for `GUC_yyget_lineno' lex.GUC_yy.c:1595: warning: no previous prototype for `GUC_yyget_in' lex.GUC_yy.c:1603: warning: no previous prototype for `GUC_yyget_out' lex.GUC_yy.c:1611: warning: no previous prototype for `GUC_yyget_leng' lex.GUC_yy.c:1620: warning: no previous prototype for `GUC_yyget_text' lex.GUC_yy.c:1629: warning: no previous prototype for `GUC_yyset_lineno' lex.GUC_yy.c:1641: warning: no previous prototype for `GUC_yyset_in' lex.GUC_yy.c:1646: warning: no previous prototype for `GUC_yyset_out' lex.GUC_yy.c:1651: warning: no previous prototype for `GUC_yyget_debug' lex.GUC_yy.c:1656: warning: no previous prototype for `GUC_yyset_debug' lex.GUC_yy.c:1662: warning: no previous prototype for `GUC_yylex_destroy' [ tsort output omitted ] All of PostgreSQL successfully made.

These are flex's fault. AFAICT flex 2.5.31 is a long way short of being
production quality. I recommend reverting to 2.5.4.

Hm. Got any idea what these are really complaining about? I see no
such gripes with the gcc versions I use, but I wouldn't be surprised
if gcc 3.3 is trying to tighten up.

The compiler is free to assume that 2 pointers of a different type never point to the same variable. It basicly happens when you cast a pointer of 1 type to an other. See the gcc info page for a little more information. The recommended way to deal with is to put them into a union. Kurt

Yuck... Other ways to deal with the problem include using -fno-strict-aliasing or -Wno-strict-aliasing (to disable the optimization itself and to disable the warnings about it, respectively). -Neil

Rumor has it that many of these warnings are bogus. But I wouldn't want to turn them off altogether because that might hide real problems. At this point, I think we should wait a while until the compiler becomes more mature. -- Peter Eisentraut peter_e@gmx.net

Bother - I'm just upgrading from 2.95.3 to 3.3.1 as this will be default on NetBSD :/ Patrick
