Unused parameters are entirely normal in functions used as callbacks as well as with ifdefs, and it seems like a low value warning to begin with (there's a reason it's not in -Wall). -Crystal

You were probably trying to be consistent with the rest of the programs in rt-tests, however, according to checkpatch, WARNING: __always_unused or __maybe_unused is preferred over __attribute__((__unused__)) __always_unused is slightly shorter, shall we try that instead?

> WARNING: __always_unused or __maybe_unused is preferred over > __attribute__((__unused__)) I tried the `__maybe_unused` using gcc 12, but it didn't work. It looks like the `__maybe_unused` attribute is only available in C23 and later https://en.cppreference.com/w/c/language/attributes/maybe_unused For backward compatibility, maybe we shall keep the existing `__attribute__((__unused__))`.
