The kernel supports a minimum GCC version of 5.1.0 for building. However, the "__diag_ignore_all" directive only suppresses the "-Wmissing-prototypes" warning for GCC versions >= 8.0.0. As a result, when building the kernel with older GCC versions, warnings may be triggered. The example below illustrates the warnings reported by the kernel test robot using GCC 7.5.0: compiler: gcc-7 (Ubuntu 7.5.0-6ubuntu2) 7.5.0 All warnings (new ones prefixed by >>): kernel/bpf/helpers.c:1893:19: warning: no previous prototype for 'bpf_obj_new_impl' [-Wmissing-prototypes] __bpf_kfunc void *bpf_obj_new_impl(u64 local_type_id__k, void *meta__ign) ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ kernel/bpf/helpers.c:1907:19: warning: no previous prototype for 'bpf_percpu_obj_new_impl' [-Wmissing-prototypes] __bpf_kfunc void *bpf_percpu_obj_new_impl(u64 local_type_id__k, void *meta__ign) [...] To address this, we should also suppress the "-Wmissing-prototypes" warning for older GCC versions. "#pragma GCC diagnostic push" is supported as of GCC 4.6, and both "-Wmissing-prototypes" and "-Wmissing-declarations" are supported for all the GCC versions that we currently support. Therefore, it is reasonable to suppress these warnings for all supported GCC versions. With this adjustment, it's important to note that after implementing "__diag_ignore_all", it will effectively suppress warnings for all the supported GCC versions. In the future, if you wish to suppress warnings that are only supported on higher GCC versions, it is advisable to explicitly use "__diag_ignore" to specify the GCC version you are targeting.
