compile driver on linux with make

问题

What does this error message mean? I am trying to run make. It looks like configure is missing. Configure is part of the kernel source?

回答1:

In your Makefile add this to the CFLAGS variable

-Wno-date-time

this will disable the warning, and since warnings are treated as errors because the Makefile is passing -Werror with the CFLAGS the code can't compile.

回答2:

I understand this is due to the warning being added to later versions of GCC, which would originally compile with eg -Wall, but now no longer do so due to this additional restriction.

If you cannot fix it using the makefile mods above, I have fixed it in my own driver builds by bracketing just the offending line(s) of source with:

#pragma GCC diagnostic push
#pragma GCC diagnostic ignored "-Wdate-time"
... code with __DATE_ __TIME__
#pragma GCC diagnostic pop

which turns the 'new' diagnostic off for the affected lines only.
