And I'm not seeing a lot of fixing activity for these. Arnd, do you
think it was just too soon?

I was aware that a couple of architectures get new warnings,
and a previous version of my patch series turned -Wmissing-prototypes
off for those architectures.
Since most other architecture maintainers had already fixed all
the warnings after that series, my hope was that this would
happen for the rest as well.
I did all my testing with CONFIG_WERROR force-enabled, so
the bit I missed here is that at least three architectures
that are missing fixes also set -Werror: mips, sparc and alpha.
How about adding a patch to no longer force -Werror for
these?

I'll also follow up with patches for the top warnings on mips
and arc, which should make most of the currently failing builds
clean again even with CONFIG_WERROR:

These architectures are doing it wrong, aren't they? They should be
using the CONFIG_WERROR infrastructure rather than hard-coding it? If
so then sure, a standalone patch to clean that up sounds sounds
appropriate. I guess it should precede "Makefile.extrawarn: turn on
missing-prototypes globally".

Yes, I think we should have already removed them when CONFIG_WERROR
was added in v5.15, the architecture specific logic dates back
to v2.6 times.

I already have a collection of patches to fix up known
-Wmissing-prototype warnings across architectures in the
asm-generic tree, so I'll add this patch there:
commit bdef96eb0b89dfa80992312a8e3b2613bf178ae5

arch: turn off -Werror for architectures with known warnings
A couple of architectures enable -Werror for their own files regardless
of CONFIG_WERROR but also have known warnings that fail the build
with -Wmissing-prototypes enabled by default:
arch/alpha/lib/memcpy.c:153:8: error: no previous prototype for 'memcpy' [-Werror=missing-prototypes]
arch/alpha/kernel/irq.c:96:1: error: no previous prototype for 'handle_irq' [-Werror=missing-prototypes]

arch/mips/kernel/signal.c:636:17: error: no previous prototype for ‘sys_sigreturn’ [-Werror=missing-prototypes]
arch/mips/kernel/syscall.c:51:16: error: no previous prototype for ‘sysm_pipe’ [-Werror=missing-prototypes]
arch/mips/mm/fault.c:323:17: error: no previous prototype for ‘do_page_fault’ [-Werror=missing-prototypes]
arch/sparc/vdso/vma.c:246:12: warning: no previous prototype for ‘init_vdso_image’ [-Wmissing-prototypes]v
arch/sparc/vdso/vdso32/../vclock_gettime.c:343:1: warning: no previous prototype for ‘__vdso_gettimeofday_stick’ [-Wmissing-prototypes]
arch/sparc/vdso/vclock_gettime.c:343:1: warning: no previous prototype for ‘__vdso_gettimeofday_stick’ [-Wmissing-prototypes]
arch/sparc/prom/p1275.c:52:6: warning: no previous prototype for ‘prom_cif_init’ [-Wmissing-prototypes]
arch/sparc/prom/misc_64.c:165:5: warning: no previous prototype for ‘prom_get_mmu_ihandle’ [-Wmissing-prototypes]
This appears to be an artifact from the times when this architecture
code was better maintained that most device drivers and before CONFIG_WERROR
was added. Now it just gets in the way, so remove all of these.
Powerpc and x86 both still have their own Kconfig options to enable -Werror
for some of their files. These architectures are better maintained than most
and the options are easy to disable, so leave those untouched.

I think this would be better in the mm-nonmm tree, alongside
"Makefile.extrawarn: turn on missing-prototypes globally". Can I steal it?

Agreed, that does help with bisection. I had pushed out the
asm-generic branch with the patch earlier today but now reverted
back to the previous state.
