All builds and tests fail with the following error.
arch/powerpc/kernel/setup_64.c:41:25: fatal error: asm/debugfs.h: No such file or directory
For older kernels, the backport of 236003e6b5443c4 ("powerpc/64s: Allow control of RFI flush via debugfs") should include linux/debugfs.h, not asm/debugfs.h.
Thanks for letting me know, I've now fixed this up. Will go work on the 4.4 patch as well.
Unfortunately it wasn't the only problem. Now we have:
arch/powerpc/kernel/entry_64.S: Assembler messages: arch/powerpc/kernel/entry_64.S:260: Error: unrecognized opcode: `rfi_to_user' arch/powerpc/kernel/entry_64.S:270: Error: unrecognized opcode: `rfi_to_kernel' arch/powerpc/kernel/entry_64.S:885: Error: unrecognized opcode: `rfi_to_user' arch/powerpc/kernel/entry_64.S:900: Error: unrecognized opcode: `rfi_to_kernel'
Looks like 222f20f140623 ("powerpc/64s: Simple RFI macro conversions") is missing, or at least part of it. Unfortunately it doesn't apply cleanly.
Ugh. Let's see if the ppc developers care about this or not :)
4.4 also now has a different failure.
In file included from drivers/staging/rdma/ehca/hcp_if.c:45:0: arch/powerpc/include/asm/hvcall.h:439:2: error: unknown type name 'u64' u64 character; ^ arch/powerpc/include/asm/hvcall.h:440:2: error: unknown type name 'u64' u64 behaviour;
You'll need 1b689a95ce742 to fix that problem.
Now queued up, thanks.
