This functionality can easily be disabled in include/linux/compiler.h by not defining USE_TYPEOF_UNQUAL: #if CC_HAS_TYPEOF_UNQUAL && !defined(__CHECKER__) # define USE_TYPEOF_UNQUAL 1 #endif (support for typeof_unqual keyword is required to handle __seg_gs qualifiers), but ... ... the issue is reportedly fixed, please see [1], and ... ... you will disable much sought of feature, just ask tglx (and please read his rant at [2]): --q-- If the compiler people would have provided a way to utilize the anyway non-standard name space support in a useful way, I could have spared the time to bang my head agaist the wall simply because this would have failed to build in the first place long ago. That just makes me sad. --/q-- [1] https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/[email protected]/ [2] https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/[email protected]/ Uros.
