Maybe the compiler warning configuration is different in the projects? |

If gcc complain here, it should also complain about line 74 below in enable_serr(), where mca_cmd_t cmd has uninitialized fields, as it is also a stack variable that will start with content and we don't set all members. We should initialize this will all zeros also.

gcc might be smart enough to figure out that only the initialised fields are used from the one in line 74, esp if it inlines it. In fact, it appears enable_serr sets two fields of that struct/union that are never used. regs here on the other hand is passed to an asm block, so gcc is unlikely to know more.

What confuses me though is this only happens for me in sel4bench, but not sel4test. I believe I'm using the same compiler in both projects, but se4lbench results in a unitialised warning that is treated as a compile error. sel4test does not even print the warning?
