From 20bc94a2b8449b7700b6bfa25a87ce2320a1c649 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paolo Bonzini Date: Fri, 20 Oct 2017 12:11:32 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] build: disable -Wmissing-braces on older compilers GCC 4.9 and newer stopped warning for missing braces around the "universal" C zero initializer {0}. One such initializer sneaked into scsi/qemu-pr-helper.c and is breaking the build with such older GCC versions. Detect the lack of support for the idiom, and disable the warning in that case.
