            Bug ID: 25267
           Summary: kernel 5.3: error: this statement may fall through
                    [-Werror=implicit-fallthrough=]
           Product: systemtap
           Version: unspecified
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: runtime
          Assignee: systemtap at sourceware dot org

  Target Milestone: ---

When building on kernel 5.3.14 with stap 4.2/0.177 (git describe =
release-4.2-6-g0c5c0f434) stap modules fail to build due to a runtime configure
bug detailed in #25265 . When this is worked around locally the build then
fails due to -Werror complaints from gcc 9.2.1 :

Editing the generated Makefile to remove -Werror i.e.


- EXTRA_CFLAGS += -Wno-unused $(call cc-option,-Wno-tautological-compare)
-Werror
+ EXTRA_CFLAGS += -Wno-unused $(call cc-option,-Wno-tautological-compare)


permits the trace module to compile. However, buildrun.cxx says

~~~
  // A bit of obfuscation for Gentoo's sake.
  // We *need* -Werror for stapconf to work correctly.
  // https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=522908
  #define WERROR ("-W" "error")
~~~

... so I presume some of the runtime configure tests are relying on things like
implicit function declaration warnings, and anyway it's not desirable to just
ignore warnings.

It's unfortunate that staprun offers no way to disable -Werror or selectively
suppress some -Werror sub-categories though, as it makes stap very fragile in
the face of compiler and kernel changes.
