Hi all,
File src/java.base/share/native/libjli/java.c compile error: control reaches end of non-void function [-Werror=return-type] with gcc options -fsanitize=address -O0. The function int JavaMain(void* _args) in this file will execute return ret in LEAVE() macro, but gcc with -O0 is not smart enough to recognized that the function already has return statement before at the end of function. It's a gcc bug which has been recorded by [80959](https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=80959), and below code snippet can demonstrate the gcc bug. I think we should disable return-type gcc warning for java.c file before the gcc bug has been fixed. Risk is low.
> cat java.c
char a() {
return 0;
int b;
if (a(&b))
return 0;
}
> gcc -O0 -Wall -Wextra -Werror -O0 -c java.c -fsanitize=address
java.c: In function ‘a’:
java.c:6:1: error: control reaches end of non-void function [-Werror=return-type]

cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
