    ktest: Add make_warnings_file and process full warnings · 4283b169
    Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) authored
    Although the patchcheck test checks for warnings in the files that were
    changed, this check does not catch warnings that were caused by header
    file changes and the warnings appear in C files not touched by the
    commit.
    
    Add a new option called WARNINGS_FILE. If this option is set, then the
    file it points to is read before bulid, and the file should contain a
    list of known warnings. If a warning appears in the build, this file is
    checked, and if the warning does not exist in this file, then it fails
    the build showing the new warning.
    
    If the WARNINGS_FILE points to a file that does not exist, this will
    cause any warning in the build to fail.
    
    A new test is also added called "make_warnings_file". This test will
    create do a build and record any warnings it finds into the
    WARNINGS_FILE. This test is something that can be run before other tests
    to build a warnings file of "known warnings", ie, warnings that were
    there before your changes.
