When using gcc (SUSE Linux) 7.5.0 (on openSUSE 15.3), I see a build warning: ../kernel/trace/trace_osnoise.c: In function 'start_kthread': ../kernel/trace/trace_osnoise.c:1461:8: warning: 'main' is usually a function [-Wmain] void *main = osnoise_main; ^~~~ Quieten that warning by using "-Wno-main". It's OK to use "main" as a declaration name in the kernel. Build-tested on most ARCHes.
