gcc-7.1.1 produces this warning: arch/x86/math-emu/reg_add_sub.c: In function 'FPU_add': arch/x86/math-emu/reg_add_sub.c:80:48: error: ?: using integer constants in boolean context [-Werror=int-in-bool-context] This appears to be a bug in gcc-7.1.1, and I have reported it as PR81484. The compiler suggests that code written as if (a & b ? c : d) is usually incorrect and should have been if (a & (b ? c : d)) However, in this case, we correctly write if ((a & b) ? c : d) and should not get a warning for it. This adds a dirty workaround for the problem, adding a comparison with zero inside of the macro. The warning is currently disabled in the kernel, so we may decide not to apply the patch, and instead wait for future gcc releases to fix the problem. On the other hand, it seems to be the only instance of this particular problem.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
