Subject: [Tarantool-patches] [PATCH] popen: fix 'may be clobbered' compiler warning
Date: Sat, 11 Apr 2020 01:28:07 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5f71273b0240cfc9cb1ee6f6473e30850650be25.1586557519.git.alexander.turenko@tarantool.org> (raw)

I guess a compiler assumes that the code inside vfork may use the stack
slot that corresponds the variable and so clobber it. The recent commit
07a07b3cc7b85375d20b3fc6ca1e5060304f337b ('popen: decouple logger fd
from stderr') adds read from this variable after vfork() in the parent
process.

The warning is produced on RelWithDebInfo build with LTO enabled on GCC
9.2.0 (locally) and on GCC 8.3.0 (in CI).

Part of #4031
---

We have -Werror enabled on some jobs in CI, so the warnings fails the CI
status. See https://gitlab.com/tarantool/tarantool/-/jobs/506891936

I verified the build locally and in CI.
