It's not -std=gnu99 that's causing those messages, it's -pedantic and -Wconversion respectively. > /usr/include/postgresql/9.5/server/c.h:298:9: warning: ISO C does not support > __int128 type [-pedantic] > /usr/include/postgresql/9.5/server/c.h:299:18: warning: ISO C does not > support __int128 type [-pedantic] We're not going to do anything about this one; certainly we won't stop using int128 where it's available, and there isn't any other apparent way to suppress the warning. I doubt that -pedantic is a useful switch in practice, and this seems to be a particularly unhelpful bit of pedantry. Consider dropping that flag. > /usr/include/postgresql/9.5/server/port/atomics/generic.h: In function > pg_atomic_add_fetch_u32_impl: > /usr/include/postgresql/9.5/server/port/atomics/generic.h:238:2: warning: > conversion to uint32 from int32 may change the sign of the result > [-Wsign-conversion] According to the gcc manual, inserting explicit casts would silence these; is that worth doing? I doubt anyone cares about making all our code -Wconversion clean, but maybe making the headers clean would be worth the trouble. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
