I've gone through all these now and found a fix. In three cases, there is no
fix yet since the respective drivers got removed before the warning was
noticed. Do we have a policy for how to deal with those? Should I just
send patches to address the warnings for 3.18?

5b235dc2647e4 MIPS: Fix the build on jz4740 after removing the custom gpio.h

This is a result of a newer compiler version, combined with the -Werror
flag that is applied to arch/mips/, and two of the mips defconfigs overriding
CONFIG_FRAME_WARN to 1024 on a 64-bit architecture (probably by
accident).

I saw this also when I looked at the 3.16 warnings, but only now actually
bisected it. The fix is

86038c5ea81b ("perf: Avoid horrible stack usage")

The driver is obsolete and was removed in v4.2. It looks like the warning
should still be there in v4.1.y, but I don't remember having seen it. It
would be trivial to fix this with an obvious patch adding a cast.

Similarly, the driver was removed in v3.19, but I could create a patch for
the warning.

The driver was properly converted in v4.2 and the warning removed, but the
conversion would be outside of stable-kernel-rules.

Also bisected this one now, this is also missing on 3.16:

I've send this fix:

8<------
clk: at91: usb: fix determine_rate prototype again

We had an incorrect backport of
4591243102fa ("clk: at91: usb: propagate rate modification to the parent clk")
that was fixed incorrectly in linux-3.18.y by
76723e7ed589 ("clk: at91: usb: fix determine_rate prototype")

This should fix it properly.

I'm wondering how good an idea it is to leave -Werror on in stable
kernels given that they're very likely to get used with newer compilers
at some point.  But then I've never been a fan of -Werror in the first
place.

I agree it's problematic as you never know what future compilers will warn
about. At the moment, alpha, mips, sh and sparc turn on -Werror
unconditionally for architecture specific code and there are only five
device drivers do this as well. The powerpc architecture and the i915
driver have a Kconfig option to control whether the warnings are enabled,
and they are turned off in allmodconfig.

I think this is just an artifact from the old days when we always had tons of
warnings in a given build, but we should try to replace it with something
better instead of just removing it (which would be easy enough to do).

I personally build with 'make CC="gcc -Werror" and fix all the warnings I
run into. I have some plans to improve it by hooking into the
scripts/Makefile.extrawarn infrastructure. Today, we can use "make W=1"
or "make W=12" to turn on extra levels of warnings, and I'd like to
add "make E=0" or "make E=012" as a way to turn on errors for
the default (0) or higher (1, 2, 3) levels, but this takes a little more
preparation.

I've wondered about this, and yeah, I would like to see the number drop
to 0 if at all possible (the scsi driver will not change), so i'll be
glad to take patches for the code that is no longer in upstream.

Ugh, I don't know why this one wasn't in 3.18, that makes me wonder what

That was in 3.17, are you sure you are looking at 3.18 like the subject

Ok, I'll have a go at this after the build report.

How about just shutting up the #warning then, based on the argument that
the warning isn't helping anyone fix it, and all the other drivers that had not
been converted at the time don't come with a #warning?

Very odd, my search was definitely going wrong there. The file that
we get the warning for was last changed in 3.6, so I accidentally looked
at ancient changes.

Upon a closer look it looks like the problem is the 'cpumask_empty()'
helper function getting uninlined with CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING,
but I cannot see why the warning is gone in later kernels. I'll probably
have to bisect it.

Ok. To clarify, I was taking note of the fact this 3.16 needs it since this
is the most frequent warning I still see on Ben's 3.16.y tree, and the
last time I went through the 3.16 build report, I did not succeed in finding
this (without bisecting).

For most of the changes, I tried looking at 'git log v3.18..stable/linux-4.4.y'
and immediately found the obvious fix. If that didn't help, I tried a few other
things, but I usually did not look in 3.18.y to see if it was already there
if I found something at first that looked obviously right.

This is another case where I confused the patch that introduced the
warning with the one that fixed it. This one requires a another patch that
got merged into 3.20:

be5136988e25 ("MIPS: asm: compiler: Add new macros to set ISA and arch
asm annotations")

It's a copy-paste mistake, missing the first digits of the commit ID,
I found the correct one now:

6ac75368e1a6 nfsd: work around a gcc-5.1 warning

Another similar mistake on my end, 2ae83bf93882 introduced the problem,
the fix we need was

97c7134ae22f ("Fix signed/unsigned pointer warning")

Yes, I'll take a patch for that, especially as the driver is now fixed
in newer kernels.

There was no "3.20", it was "4.0" :)

Thanks, I've applied this now.

This doesn't apply to the 3.18-stable tree, and I don't know ARM
assembly good enough to backport it properly.  Any hints?

Doesn't apply, and I couldn't figure out the backport :(

Thanks so much for the list, I think I'm all caught up now, hopefully
the next release will have almost no warnings.

This is caused by the backport of f01d35a15fa0416 from 4.0 to 3.18:
c81fc59be42c6e0 gadgetfs: use-after-free in ->aio_read()

The backported patch was buggy, but the mainline code was
rewritten in a larger patch directly following this one in a way that
fixed the bug.

For stable, we should need only a one-line change, which I sent now:

I've bisected this to
be0c37c985ed ("MIPS: Rearrange PTE bits into fixed positions.")
which accidentally shuts up the warning, but does not apply to
3.18, and is not appropriate for a stable backport.

The code is correct, so we can probably just add an initialization
for the variable. Patch sent.

    [3.18-stable regression] ARM: psci: fix header file

    Commit be95485a0b828 was incorrectly backported to 3.18 and
    now causes a different build error when CONFIG_SMP is disabled:

     arch/arm/kernel/psci.c:287:12: error: redefinition of 'psci_init'

    This version is how it should be on 3.18, with the main psci
    code built for both SMP and UP, but the psci_smp_available()
    function only being available for SMP builds.
