There are still a lot of warnings left as of RC3. I notice that quite a few are caused by a few files. Can the owner of these files take a stab at fixing these,

I see that some of these belong to Open MPI. I'm somewhat surprised; we aren't seeing these (granted, we aren't seeing these in builds *outside of OFED*). What compiler and build options are being used to generate these warnings?

Some of them cannot be "fixed", though.  For example:

btl_openib_lex.c:1740: warning: 'yy_flex_realloc' defined but not used
btl_openib_lex.l:99: warning: ignoring return value of 'fwrite',
declared with attribute warn_unused_result
keyval_lex.c:1673: warning: 'yy_flex_realloc' defined but not used
keyval_lex.l:83: warning: ignoring return value of 'fwrite', declared
with attribute warn_unused_result

These are in flex-generated code that we can't change.

configure: WARNING: *** Corresponding Fortran 77 type (INTEGER*16) not
supported
configure: WARNING: *** Did not find corresponding C type
configure: WARNING: dlfcn.h: accepted by the compiler, rejected by the
preprocessor!
configure: WARNING: dlfcn.h: proceeding with the compiler's result
configure: WARNING: File locks may not work with NFS.  See the
Installation and
configure: WARNING:  -finline-functions has been added to CXXFLAGS
configure: WARNING:  -fno-strict-aliasing has been added to CFLAGS

This is OMPI's configure telling you information.

libtool: install: warning: `../../../ompi/libmpi.la' has not been
installed in `/usr/mpi/gcc/openmpi-1.2.8/lib64'
libtool: install: warning: `../../../opal/libopen-pal.la' has not been
installed in `/usr/mpi/gcc/openmpi-1.2.8/lib64'
libtool: install: warning: `../../../orte/libopen-rte.la' has not been
installed in `/usr/mpi/gcc/openmpi-1.2.8/lib64'

I have no idea what is causing these warnings.

libtool: install: warning: relinking `libmpi.la'
libtool: install: warning: relinking `libopen-rte.la'
...etc.

This is normal output from libtool during the OMPI installation process that we cannot change.

There's a few others that belong to OMPI that I can look into, but knowing what compiler and build options you were using would be helpful. Thanks!
