Subject: [PATCH 12/12] perf tools: Add support for disabling -Werror via WERROR=0
Date: Fri, 23 Sep 2011 17:26:26 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1316809586-28529-13-git-send-email-acme@infradead.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1316809586-28529-1-git-send-email-acme@infradead.org>

From: Darren Hart <dvhart@linux.intel.com>

GCC often introduces new warnings with lots of false positives -
breaking -Werror builds. WERROR=0 allows one to build perf without much
fuss - while still encouraging people to send patches to avoid the fuss
of having to type WERROR=0.

Bisecting back to commits that produce a (mostly harmless) warning on
some compilers is more difficult. With WERROR=0 one could bisect without
worrying about harmless warnings.
