Subject: [Intel-wired-lan] [RFC PATCH] i40e: Build for 64-bit targets only
Date: Wed, 4 Oct 2017 02:52:08 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171004015208.GA2971@decadent.org.uk> (raw)
i40e now uses cmpxchg64(), which only works on a 64-bit (or non-SMP)
system. (It is currently defined for many 32-bit SMP configurations,
but not correctly!) It seems reasonable to expect that 40G hardware
is not used on 32-bit systems.
Fixes: 841c950d67c6 ("i40e/i40evf: use cmpxchg64 when updating private ...")
Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk>

I specifically found a build failure on 32-bit parisc:
