But the # problem in question is limited to only the 'asm goto with outputs' # cases, so instead of re-introducing the old workaround as-is, let's # rename and limit the workaround to just that much less common case. # # It looks like there are at least two separate issues that all hit in # this area: # # (a) some versions of gcc don't mark the asm goto as 'volatile' when it # has outputs: # # https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=98619 # https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=110420 # # which is easy to work around by just adding the 'volatile' by hand. # # (b) Internal compiler errors: # # https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=110422 # # which are worked around by adding the extra empty 'asm' as a # barrier, as in the original workaround. # # but the problem Sean sees may be a third thing since it involves bad # code generation (not an ICE) even with the manually added 'volatile'. # # but the same old workaround works for this case, even if this feels a # bit like voodoo programming and may only be hiding the issue. # # Reported-and-tested-by: Sean Christopherson # Link: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240208220604.140859-1-seanjc@google.com/ # Cc: Nick Desaulniers # Cc: Uros Bizjak # Cc: Jakub Jelinek # Cc: Andrew Pinski # Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds # < /opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-12.2.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux-gcc --version # < /opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-12.2.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux-ld --version # < git log --format=%s --max-count=1 4356e9f841f7fbb945521cef3577ba394c65f3fc # make -s -j 40 ARCH=powerpc O=/kisskb/build/linus_pseries_le_defconfig_powerpc-gcc12 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-12.2.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux- pseries_le_defconfig Using /kisskb/src/arch/powerpc/configs/ppc64_defconfig as base Merging /kisskb/src/arch/powerpc/configs/le.config Merging /kisskb/src/arch/powerpc/configs/guest.config Value of CONFIG_VIRTIO_BLK is redefined by fragment /kisskb/src/arch/powerpc/configs/guest.config: Previous value: CONFIG_VIRTIO_BLK=m New value: CONFIG_VIRTIO_BLK=y Value of CONFIG_SCSI_VIRTIO is redefined by fragment /kisskb/src/arch/powerpc/configs/guest.config: Previous value: CONFIG_SCSI_VIRTIO=m New value: CONFIG_SCSI_VIRTIO=y Value of CONFIG_VIRTIO_NET is redefined by fragment /kisskb/src/arch/powerpc/configs/guest.config: Previous value: CONFIG_VIRTIO_NET=m New value: CONFIG_VIRTIO_NET=y Value of CONFIG_VIRTIO_CONSOLE is redefined by fragment /kisskb/src/arch/powerpc/configs/guest.config: Previous value: CONFIG_VIRTIO_CONSOLE=m New value: CONFIG_VIRTIO_CONSOLE=y Value of CONFIG_VIRTIO_PCI is redefined by fragment /kisskb/src/arch/powerpc/configs/guest.config: Previous value: CONFIG_VIRTIO_PCI=m New value: CONFIG_VIRTIO_PCI=y Value of CONFIG_VIRTIO_BALLOON is redefined by fragment /kisskb/src/arch/powerpc/configs/guest.config: Previous value: CONFIG_VIRTIO_BALLOON=m New value: CONFIG_VIRTIO_BALLOON=y Value of CONFIG_VHOST_NET is redefined by fragment /kisskb/src/arch/powerpc/configs/guest.config: Previous value: CONFIG_VHOST_NET=m New value: CONFIG_VHOST_NET=y Value of CONFIG_IBMVETH is redefined by fragment /kisskb/src/arch/powerpc/configs/guest.config: Previous value: CONFIG_IBMVETH=m New value: CONFIG_IBMVETH=y Value of CONFIG_IBMVNIC is redefined by fragment /kisskb/src/arch/powerpc/configs/guest.config: Previous value: CONFIG_IBMVNIC=m New value: CONFIG_IBMVNIC=y Merging /kisskb/src/arch/powerpc/configs/kvm_guest.config # # merged configuration written to .config (needs make) # # < make -s -j 40 ARCH=powerpc O=/kisskb/build/linus_pseries_le_defconfig_powerpc-gcc12 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-12.2.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux- help # make -s -j 40 ARCH=powerpc O=/kisskb/build/linus_pseries_le_defconfig_powerpc-gcc12 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-12.2.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux- olddefconfig # make -s -j 40 ARCH=powerpc O=/kisskb/build/linus_pseries_le_defconfig_powerpc-gcc12 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-12.2.0-nolibc/powerpc64-linux/bin/powerpc64-linux- Completed OK # rm -rf /kisskb/build/linus_pseries_le_defconfig_powerpc-gcc12 # Build took: 0:02:25.337951
