With the recent fixes for fallthrough warnings, it is now possible to enable -Wimplicit-fallthrough for Clang. It's important to mention that since we have adopted the use of the pseudo-keyword macro fallthrough; we also want to avoid having more /* fall through */ comments being introduced. Notice that contrary to GCC, Clang doesn't recognize any comments as implicit fall-through markings when the -Wimplicit-fallthrough option is enabled. So, in order to avoid having more comments being introduced, we have to use the option -Wimplicit-fallthrough=5 for GCC, which similar to Clang, will cause a warning in case a code comment is intended to be used as a fall-through marking.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. 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.
