SubjectRe: [PATCH 3/10] compiler-gcc.h: Add gcc-recommended GCC_VERSION macro
So in light of feedback I've been getting on this patch set, it leaves
me with
this question.
> +#define GCC_VERSION (__GNUC__ * 10000 \
> + + __GNUC_MINOR__ * 100 \
> + + __GNUC_PATCHLEVEL__)
This macro presumes you are using gcc 3.0 or later, which introduced the
__GNUC_PATCHLEVEL__ predefined macro. Should you be using a version of gcc
prior to 3.0 (where the macro is undefined), you would get an error that
__GNUC_PATCHLEVEL__ is undefined prior to getting the error trying to
include
"linux/compiler-gcc2.h". So it presumes the compiler is 3.0+, when another
part of the code may allow it from a future change. Should it be
modified to
do account for this or would that be overkill?


#ifdef __GNUC_PATCHLEVEL__
# define GCC_VERSION (__GNUC__ * 10000 \
+ __GNUC_MINOR__ * 100 \
+ __GNUC_PATCHLEVEL__)
#else
# define GCC_VERSION (__GNUC__ * 10000 \
+ __GNUC_MINOR__ * 100)
#endif
