Subject: 28.0.50; Compilation warnings with mini-gmp
Date: Fri, 10 Jul 2020 03:20:03 -0400

The configuration with mini-gmp, when GMP is not installed, doesn't
compile cleanly.  First, compilation in lib/ emits this warning:

    CC       mini-gmp-gnulib.o
  mini-gmp-gnulib.c:28:10: warning: unknown option after ‘#pragma GCC diagnostic’ kind [-Wpragmas]
  # pragma GCC diagnostic ignored "-Wsuggest-attribute=malloc"

Next, compilation in src/ yields further warnings:

  data.c:2811:9: warning: assignment from incompatible pointer type [enabled by default]
     accum = &mpz[0];

Is this with

./configure --without-libgmp

?  If so, I'm not able to reproduce the bug on Debian bullseye.  But I
see that mini-gmp-gnulib.c was updated a couple of weeks after you
reported this.  Are you still seeing these warnings on your system?

No, this is on a system without GMP.  config.log says:

  configure:18948: checking gmp.h usability
  configure:18948: gcc -std=gnu11 -c  -O0 -g3     conftest.c >&5

  ...
  configure:19002: result: no

The results should be identical, though, AFAIU.

With what version of GCC?  This could be dependent on the compiler
version; mine in that case is

  gcc (Ubuntu 4.8.4-2ubuntu1~14.04.4) 4.8.4

as was reported originally.  (This is on fencepost.gnu.org, btw.)

The warning in mini-gmp-gnulib.c is indeed gone, but GMP-related
warnings in our own sources still remain.  Examples:

  floatfns.c:374:10: warning: assignment from incompatible pointer type [enabled by default]
	 pn = t;
	    ^

	 pn = t;

Does "configure --without-libgmp" help ?

No, I said it _should_ produce the same results.

But I think the other factor here is GCC.

Sorry, I misunderstood you.  My gcc version is:

larsi <at> xo:~/src/emacs/native-compile$ gcc --version
gcc (Debian 10.2.0-13) 10.2.0

Yes.  The one which gave me trouble was 4.8...
