The breakage is only with some compiler versions and some # hardware, and nobody seems to have figured out what triggers it, # although there's a simple reprodicer for the problem when it does # trigger. # # The problem was introduced with the conversion to the generic GUP code # in commit 7b9afb86b632 ("sparc64: use the generic get_user_pages_fast # code"), but nothing looks obviously wrong in that conversion. It may be # a compiler bug that just hits us with the code reorganization. Or it # may be something very specific to sparc64. # # This disables HAVE_FAST_GUP entirely. That makes things like futexes a # bit slower, but at least they work. If we can figure out the trigger, # that would be lovely, but it's been three months already.. # # Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20190717215956.GA30369@altlinux.org/ # Fixes: 7b9afb86b632 ("sparc64: use the generic get_user_pages_fast code") # Reported-by: Dmitry V Levin # Reported-by: Anatoly Pugachev # Requested-by: Meelis Roos # Suggested-by: Christoph Hellwig # Cc: David Miller # Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds # < /opt/cross/kisskb/gcc-4.6.3-nolibc/arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi/bin/arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi-gcc --version # < /opt/cross/kisskb/gcc-4.6.3-nolibc/arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi/bin/arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi-ld --version # < git log --format=%s --max-count=1 8e0d0ad206f08506c893326ca7c9c3d9cc042cef # < make -s -j 120 ARCH=arm O=/kisskb/build/linus_exynos_defconfig_arm CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/gcc-4.6.3-nolibc/arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi/bin/arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi- exynos_defconfig # make -s -j 120 ARCH=arm O=/kisskb/build/linus_exynos_defconfig_arm CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/gcc-4.6.3-nolibc/arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi/bin/arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi- /kisskb/src/kernel/rcu/srcutree.c: In function 'init_srcu_struct_fields': /kisskb/src/kernel/rcu/srcutree.c:140:32: warning: 'levelspread[]' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized] /kisskb/src/kernel/rcu/srcutree.c:88:6: note: 'levelspread[]' was declared here /kisskb/src/kernel/printk/printk.c: In function 'devkmsg_sysctl_set_loglvl': /kisskb/src/kernel/printk/printk.c:204:16: warning: 'old' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized] /kisskb/src/fs/proc/inode.c: In function 'proc_reg_open': /kisskb/src/include/linux/list.h:65:12: warning: 'pdeo' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized] /kisskb/src/fs/proc/inode.c:338:21: note: 'pdeo' was declared here /kisskb/src/sound/soc/soc-pcm.c: In function 'soc_pcm_trigger': /kisskb/src/sound/soc/soc-pcm.c:1074:5: warning: 'ret' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized] /kisskb/src/sound/soc/soc-pcm.c: In function 'soc_pcm_bespoke_trigger': /kisskb/src/sound/soc/soc-pcm.c:1092:9: warning: 'ret' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized] /kisskb/src/drivers/base/regmap/regmap.c: In function 'regmap_raw_read': /kisskb/src/drivers/base/regmap/regmap.c:2591:6: warning: 'ret' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized] /kisskb/src/drivers/base/regmap/regmap.c: In function '_regmap_raw_write': /kisskb/src/drivers/base/regmap/regmap.c:1852:6: warning: 'ret' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized] /kisskb/src/crypto/sha512_generic.c: In function 'sha512_transform': /kisskb/src/crypto/sha512_generic.c:149:1: warning: the frame size of 1184 bytes is larger than 1024 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=] /kisskb/src/net/mac80211/mlme.c: In function 'ieee80211_rx_mgmt_beacon': /kisskb/src/net/mac80211/mlme.c:1576:3: warning: 'pwr_level_cisco' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized] /kisskb/src/net/mac80211/mlme.c:1533:6: note: 'pwr_level_cisco' was declared here WARNING: "return_address" [vmlinux] is a static EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL Completed OK # rm -rf /kisskb/build/linus_exynos_defconfig_arm # Build took: 0:01:12.943620
