GCC and Clang have different policy for -Wunused-function; GCC does not warn unused static inline functions at all whereas Clang does if they are defined in source files instead of included headers although it has been suppressed since commitabb2ea7dfd
("compiler, clang: suppress warning for unused static inline functions"). We often miss to delete unused functions where 'static inline' is used in *.c files since there is no tool to detect them. Unused code remains until somebody notices. For example, commit075ddd7568
("regulator: core: remove unused rdev_get_supply()"). Let's remove __maybe_unused from the inline macro to allow Clang to start finding unused static inline functions. For now, we do this only for W=1 build since it is not a good idea to sprinkle warnings for the normal build (e.g. 35 warnings for arch/x86/configs/x86_64_defconfig). My initial attempt was to add -Wno-unused-function for no W= build (https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/1120594/) Nathan Chancellor pointed out that would weaken Clang's checks since we would no longer get -Wunused-function without W=1. It is true GCC would catch unused static non-inline functions, but it would weaken Clang as a standalone compiler, at least. Hence, here is a counter implementation. The current problem is, W=... only controls compiler flags, which are globally effective. There is no way to address only 'static inline' functions. This commit defines KBUILD_EXTRA_WARN[123] corresponding to W=[123]. When KBUILD_EXTRA_WARN1 is defined, __maybe_unused is omitted from the 'inline' macro. The new macro __inline_maybe_unused makes the code a bit uglier, so I hope we can remove it entirely after fixing most of the warnings. If you contribute to code clean-up, please run "make CC=clang W=1" and check -Wunused-function warnings. You will find lots of unused functions. Some of them are false-positives because the call-sites are disabled by #ifdef. I do not like to abuse the inline keyword for suppressing unused-function warnings because it is intended to be a hint for the compiler optimization. I prefer #ifdef around the definition, or __maybe_unused if #ifdef would make the code too ugly.
