Since https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/ca75ac5f04f2, clang 15
has a new warning about _Generic selection expressions, such as used in
math.h:
lib/libc/gdtoa/_ldtoa.c:82:10: error: due to lvalue conversion of the controlling expression, association of type 'volatile float' will never be selected because it is qualified [-Werror,-Wunreachable-code-generic-assoc]
switch (fpclassify(u.e)) {
^
lib/msun/src/math.h:109:2: note: expanded from macro 'fpclassify'
__fp_type_select(x, __fpclassifyf, __fpclassifyd, __fpclassifyl)
^
lib/msun/src/math.h:85:14: note: expanded from macro '__fp_type_select'
volatile float: f(x), \
^
This is because the controlling expression always undergoes lvalue
conversion first, dropping any cv-qualifiers. The 'const', 'volatile',
and 'volatile const' associations will therefore never be used.
