The code was still working with GCC 12.1 where the same warning was classified
as a float-conversion warning.
<source>:7:18: warning: conversion from 'double' to '_Float16' may change value
[-Wfloat-conversion]
7 | _Float16 b = a;
|
The code is part of a third party library. Ideally the code should be fixed to
avoid the warning. But until the next release of the library I wanted to
disable the warnings that we were getting in our builds.
The change in behavior from gcc12 to gcc13 prompted me to come here to check if
that was an intended change.
