When build xfstests, a lot of "unused result" warning are reported:

    [CC] write_log.lo
write_log.c: In function 'wlog_record_write':
write_log.c:205:13: warning: ignoring return value of 'write' declared with attribute 'warn_unused_result' [-Wunused-result]
  205 |             write(wfile->w_afd, wbuf, reclen);
      |             ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
write_log.c:209:13: warning: ignoring return value of 'write' declared with attribute 'warn_unused_result' [-Wunused-result]
  209 |             write(wfile->w_rfd, wbuf, reclen);
      |             ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    [CC] random.lo

Mostly are calused by not using the return value of read()/write()/...
Ignore this warning by adding `-Wno-unused-result` to CCFLAGS.  This
won't cause other problem but make the log clean.

Hi,

I never hit this build warning:

# make
...
Building lib
    [LTDEP]
    [CC] write_log.lo
    [LD]
Building ltp
    [CC]    doio
    [CC]    fsstress
...

Besides that ...

I'm not an expert of gcc. From the manual of gcc, it says:

       -Wno-unused-result
           Do not warn if a caller of a function marked with attribute "warn_unused_result" does not use its return value. The default is -Wunused-result.

Looks like the "-Wno-unused-result" works for "a function marked with
attribute warn_unused_result", e.g.

    int __attribute__((warn_unused_result)) foo(void)

I think fstests doesn't use that attribute.

Thanks,
Zorro

No, but unistd.h does for write():

extern ssize_t write (int __fd, const void *__buf, size_t __n) __wur
    __attr_access ((__read_only__, 2, 3));

where "__wur" is a macro wrapping __attribute__
((__warn_unused_result__)) if available and FORTIFY_SOURCE is nonzero.

But, uh, shouldn't we fix these programs either to fail the test because
some part of its execution failed, or declare that the return value is
irrelevant if that's the case?

Could you share me the info of your build environment?  Such as OS, 
kernel, gcc version.  I'd like to find out what wrong with mine.

Do you use gcc-15?

Oh, good to know that :)

The warning is not a big deal, /but/ I just found GCC-15 changed lots of
default things, especially use -std=gnu23 by default:

  https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-15/porting_to.html


that causes xfstests can't be built with gcc-15 ... lots of build errors.

It can be "fixed"(skipped) by set -std=gnu17:

-GCCFLAGS = -funsigned-char -fno-strict-aliasing -Wall
+GCCFLAGS = -funsigned-char -fno-strict-aliasing -std=gnu17 -Wall

but I'm not sure if it's a good way. I'm wondering should we port to C23
totally... It needs to changes lots of "old style" C codes.
