Hello Jiping,

This first message is a warning only, saying the '+gnuextensions' flag
does not change anything (as it is the default).

If you still want to specify '+gnuextensions' on the command line and
you don't want to see this message, place a '-warnflags' flag left of
'+gnuextensions'.

This is a fatal error:  Splint does not find 'portability.h' in the
directories given as search path.

In 'heartbeat.h', it is checked whether LOG_PRI or LOG_PRIMASK is
defined. They are not (maybe due to the missing header). Reaching an
#error directive is regarded as a fatal error.

This is a fatal error too.

'portability.h' is missing again.

'portability.h' should be included a third time.

This final message means, splint bailed out after preprocessing phase.


It's a proven strategy to take care for the first error message first,
so try adding the path to 'portability.h' to the search path.

OTOH, if 'nrmd.c' cannot be compiled (due to the compiler also chokes
on the missing headers and failed tests), you may still run splint on
it by specifying '-preproc' flag. (I'm not sure whether this would be
meaningful, though).

HTH,

Ludolf
