I see that the patch made it into the upstream kernel, now breaking both mainline and 6.16.y test builds of loongarch64:allmodconfig with gcc.
Since this is apparently intentional, I'll stop build testing loongarch64:allmodconfig. So far it looks like my qemu tests are not affected, so I'll continue testing those for the time being.
See https://gcc.gnu.org/PR122073%C2%A0and https://github.com/acpica/acpica/pull/1050.
I understand that. Every compiler has bugs. Normally workarounds are implemented. Since that won't happen here, my remedy is to stop testing the affected configuration(s). I do this whenever I learn that a known problem won't be fixed. The above is not a complaint, just an information.
Hi Guenter,
The mainline should be already fixed with 6e3a4754717a ("ACPICA: Work around bogus -Wstringop-overread warning since GCC 11") now. The commit is Cc'ed to stable so we can expect 6.16.y will be fixed soon as well.
