#1205591 — linux-next: manual merge of the xen-tip tree with the tip tree

Subjectlinux-next: manual merge of the xen-tip tree with the tip tree
Message-ID<pWwCd-2TC-11@gated-at.bofh.it>
Hi all,

Today's linux-next merge of the xen-tip tree got a conflict in:

  arch/x86/xen/enlighten.c

between commit:

  9261e050b686 ("x86/asm/tsc, x86/paravirt: Remove read_tsc() and read_tscp() paravirt hooks")

from the tip tree and commit:

  cd6f350a5460 ("xen/PMU: Initialization code for Xen PMU")

from the xen-tip tree.

I fixed it up (see below) and can carry the fix as necessary (no action
is required).

Thanks, this looks good.

Incidentally, 11276d53 ("locking/static_keys: Add a new static_key 
interface") breaks old-ish compilers (gcc version 4.4.4 20100503 (Red 
Hat 4.4.4-2) (GCC)):

Ugh bugger.

I bet its that: &((char *)key)[branch] business, an earlier variant
thereof tripped up more recent GCCs too.

So its an __always_inline function, and both argument are always compile
time constants, @key is the address of an object in static storage (a
global) and @branch is a simple 0/1 at the call site.

Now we wish to compute (unsigned long)key + branch at compile/link time
to feed to the assembler as an immediate, which should be possible,
given its all 'constants'.

It just appears GCC is having a hard time with this.

Let me see if I have a sufficiently old GCC around to play with.

So both my 4.4 compilers:

gcc-4.4 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.4.7-8ubuntu1) 4.4.7
gcc-4.4 (Debian 4.4.7-2) 4.4.7

Do not have CC_HAVE_ASM_GOTO at all, and my gcc-4.6 (my next oldest
compiler) doesn't have trouble building this.

Could you feed the below to your compiler? Its a bit cumbersome, but
its the next best I could come up with...

No, it produces the same error. This is Fedora 13, btw, uses gcc 4.4.4.

One option might be to do the addition in assembly, i.e.:

"i" (key), "i" (index)

... and put the addition into the assembly source.

Like so? Seems to build on gcc-4.6.

Thanks, Ingo / Hpa, can you make the below patch appear in the right tip
branch?

Subject: jump_label, x86: Fix asm for older GCCs
From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org>
Date: Wed Aug 12 20:58:48 CEST 2015

Boris reported that: gcc version 4.4.4 20100503 (Red Hat 4.4.4-2)
fails to build. The problem appears that even though @key and @branch
are compile time constants it doesn't see: &((char *)key)[branch]
as an immediate. More recent GCCs don't appear to have this problem.

In particular, Red Hat backported the asm goto feature into 4.4,
'normal' 4.4 compilers will not have this feature and thus not run
into this asm.

The solution is to supply both values to the asm as immediates and do
the addition in asm.

Applied, it will show up as the following commit:
