splint: ask not to check system headers

1.3k Views Asked by At

Is there a way to stop splint from analyzing system headers included, POSIX, libc etc.? I run with -warnposix -preproc:

% splint -warnposix -preproc my.c

/usr/include/unistd.h:220:8: Parse Error: Non-function declaration:
    __BEGIN_DECLS : int. (For help on parse errors, see splint -help
    parseerrors.)
*** Cannot continue.

UPDATE:

% splint +posixlib +unixlib -I/path/to/myheaders -I/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu my.c

/usr/include/asm-generic/int-ll64.h:19:24: Parse Error:
    Suspect missing struct or union keyword: __signed__ :
    int. (For help on parse errors, see splint -help parseerrors.)

After reading splint FAQ14 I tried to eliminate nonstandard keyword:

% splint +posixlib +unixlib -D__signed__= -I/path/to/myheaders -I/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu my.c

/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/sys/syslog.h:200:66: Parse Error:
    Inconsistent function parameter syntax: __gnuc_va_list :
    <any>. (For help on parse errors, see splint -help parseerrors.)
*** Cannot continue.

Declaring __gnuc_va_list as nonstandard keyword doesn't help in this particular case. I feel that splint is a powerful tool, but it requires to annotate almost every code it parses. Am I wrong?
