SubjectBug#885245: linux: FTBFS on powerpcspe: sstep.c: ptesync unrecognized
Message-ID<v0OfT-4Sj-1@gated-at.bofh.it>
Source: linux
Version: 4.14.7-1
Severity: important
Tags: upstream
Justification: fails to build from source (but built successfully in the past)
User: debian-powerpc@lists.debian.org
Usertags: powerpcspe

Builds of linux for powerpcspe (admittedly not a release architecture)
have been failing lately:

  {standard input}: Assembler messages:
  {standard input}:5854: Error: unrecognized opcode: `ptesync'
  /<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/scripts/Makefile.build:319: recipe for target 'arch/powerpc/lib/sstep.o' failed
  make[6]: *** [arch/powerpc/lib/sstep.o] Error 1

Could you please take a look?

Thanks!

I would welcome a powerpcspe porter to join the kernel team, but until
that happens you should not expect any fixes from our side.  (If you
had a porterbox available, this might be a more reasonable request.)

The breaking commit appears to be:

commit 3cdfcbfd32b9d1c0d4a6fa80ee9c390927aab948
Author: Paul Mackerras <paulus@ozlabs.org>
Date:   Wed Aug 30 14:12:25 2017 +1000

    powerpc: Change analyse_instr so it doesn't modify *regs

The other reference to ptesync in this file is guarded by
"#ifdef __powerpc64__", so most likely that's needed around the new
use.  But I don't know whether a fix is as simple as that.

The upstream address to contact is linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org.

Ben.

Fair enough.  FTR, I'm not a porter for this (or any other) architecture
myself, just a regular DD who helps ensure that build errors for
packages that have recently emerged from NEW don't accidentally escape
notice.

Rest assured that I am paying attention to linux build results.
