[PATCH] clocksource/drivers/arm_arch_timer: Force inlining of erratum_set_next_event_generic()
From: Marc Zyngier
Date: Wed Nov 17 2021 - 06:35:49 EST
With some specific kernel configuration and Clang, the kernel fails
to like with something like:
ld.lld: error: undefined symbol: __compiletime_assert_200
>>> referenced by arch_timer.h:156 (./arch/arm64/include/asm/arch_timer.h:156)
>>> clocksource/arm_arch_timer.o:(erratum_set_next_event_generic) in archive drivers/built-in.a
ld.lld: error: undefined symbol: __compiletime_assert_197
>>> referenced by arch_timer.h:133 (./arch/arm64/include/asm/arch_timer.h:133)
>>> clocksource/arm_arch_timer.o:(erratum_set_next_event_generic) in archive drivers/built-in.a
make: *** [Makefile:1161: vmlinux] Error 1
These are due to the BUILD_BUG() macros contained in the low-level
accessors (arch_timer_reg_{write,read}_cp15) being emitted, as the
access type wasn't known at compile time.
Fix this by making erratum_set_next_event_generic() __force_inline,
resulting in the 'access' parameter to be resolved at compile time,
similarly to what is already done for set_next_event().
Fixes: 4775bc63f880 ("Add build-time guards for unhandled register accesses")
