Hi,

Dave Hansen, Muhammad Usama Anjum, here is the combined series that we
discussed yesterday [1].

As I mentioned then, this is a bit intrusive--but no more than
necessary, IMHO. Specifically, it moves some clang-un-inlineable things
out to "pure" assembly code files.

I've tested this by building with clang, then running each binary on my
x86_64 test system with today's 6.10-rc1, and comparing the console and
dmesg output to a gcc-based build without these patches applied. Aside
from timestamps and virtual addresses, it looks identical.

Earlier cover letter:

Just a bunch of build and warnings fixes that show up when building with
clang. Some of these depend on each other, so I'm sending them as a
series.

Changes since v2:

1) Dropped my test_FISTTP.c patch, and picked up Muhammad's fix instead,
   seeing as how that was posted first.

2) Updated patch descriptions to reflect that Valentin Obst's build fix
   for LLVM [1] has already been merged into Linux main.

3) Minor wording and typo corrections in the commit logs throughout.

Changes since the first version:
1) Rebased onto Linux 6.10-rc1

Enjoy!

Hi Dave, Shuah,

Are either of you planning to take this series? I ask because I have a
very slightly overlapping series that enhances the LLVM/clang checks,
that I'm about to post. And I'm not sure if I should try to include
a small fix that would apply to patch 5/7 here.

(This is not urgent, because it's merely a deferral of adding LLVM/clang
support to these kselftests.)


thanks,

This series is important. Please accept it.

Hi Muhammad,

May I add your acked by to the series? I can use that as a weak excuse to
resend this, rebased onto the latest, and keep trying to get attention on
it.

Yeah, sure. I've reviewed the patches. But haven't found time to send the
tags to patches individually.
