[PATCH v3 01/13] git_fopen: fix a sparse 'not declared' warning

From
Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
Date
May 26, 2017, 03:34 UTC
Message-ID
<20170526033510.1793-2-gitster@pobox.com>
In-Reply-To
<20170526033510.1793-1-gitster@pobox.com>
From: Ramsay Jones <ramsay@ramsayjones.plus.com>

If git is built with the FREAD_READS_DIRECTORIES build variable set, this would cause sparse to issue a 'not declared, should it be static?' warning on Linux. This is a result of the method employed by 'compat/fopen.c' to suppress the (possible) redefinition of the (system) fopen macro, which also removes the extern declaration of the git_fopen function.

In order to suppress the warning, introduce a new macro to suppress the definition (or possibly the re-definition) of the fopen symbol as a macro override. This new macro (SUPPRESS_FOPEN_REDEFINITION) is only defined in 'compat/fopen.c', just prior to the inclusion of the 'git-compat-util.h' header file.

- *  FREAD_READS_DIRECTORIES is undefined before including git-compat-util.h
+ *  SUPPRESS_FOPEN_REDEFINITION is defined before including git-compat-util.h
  *  to avoid the redefinition of fopen within git-compat-util.h. This is
  *  necessary since fopen is a macro on some platforms which may be set
  *  based on compiler options. For example, on AIX fopen is set to fopen64
  *  when _LARGE_FILES is defined. The previous technique of merely undefining
  *  fopen after including git-compat-util.h is inadequate in this case.
