Commit aea447141c7e ("powerpc: Disable -Wbuiltin-requires-header when setjmp is used") disabled -Wbuiltin-requires-header because of a warning about the setjmp and longjmp declarations.
r367387 in clang added another diagnostic around this, complaining that there is no jmp_buf declaration.

It may be worth using -fno-builtin-setjmp and -fno-builtin-longjmp instead as it makes it clear to clang that we are not using the builtin longjmp and setjmp functions, which I think is why these warnings are appearing (at least according to the commit that introduced this waring).
Sample patch: https://github.com/ClangBuiltLinux/linux/issues/625#issuecomment-519251372
However, this is the most conservative approach, as I have already had someone notice this error when building LLVM with PGO on tip of tree LLVM.

Hi Christophe,
It looks like all of those will be using the system's setjmp header, which won't cause these warnings.

Couldn't we just add those flags to CFLAGS for the whole kernel? Rather than making them per-file.
I mean there's no kernel code that wants to use clang's builtin setjmp/longjmp implementation at all right?

I did a quick search of the tree and it looks like powerpc and x86/um are the only architectures that do anything with setjmp/longjmp. x86/um avoids this by using a define flag to change setjmp to kernel_setjmp:
arch/um/Makefile: -Dlongjmp=kernel_longjmp -Dsetjmp=kernel_setjmp \
Seems like adding those flags should be safe.

The `-f` family of flags have dire implications for codegen, I'd really prefer we think long and hard before adding/removing them to suppress warnings. I don't think it's a solution for this particular problem.

I am fine with whatever approach gets this warning fixed to the maintainer's satisfaction...
However, I think that -fno-builtin-* would be appropriate here because we are providing our own setjmp implementation, meaning clang should not be trying to do anything with the builtin implementation like building a declaration for it.

That's a good reason IMO. IIRC, the -fno-builtin-* flags don't warn if * is some unrecognized value, so -fno-builtin-setjmp may not actually do anything, and you may need to scan the source (of clang or llvm).

-fno-builtin-foo makes the compiler not handle "foo" the same as it handles "__builtin_foo". If the compiler has no idea about "foo", well, that is exactly what it does then anyhow, so why would it warn :-)
