Subject: include/linux/pgtable.h: convert arch_enter_lazy_mmu_mode() and friends to static inlines
Date: Sat Sep 13 05:03:39 PM PDT 2025
commit c519c3c0a113 ("mm/kasan: avoid lazy MMU mode hazards") introduced
the use of arch_enter_lazy_mmu_mode(), which results in the compiler
complaining about "statement has no effect", when
__HAVE_ARCH_LAZY_MMU_MODE is not defined in include/linux/pgtable.h
The exact warning/error is:
In file included from ./include/linux/kasan.h:37,
from mm/kasan/shadow.c:14:
mm/kasan/shadow.c: In function kasan_populate_vmalloc_pte:
./include/linux/pgtable.h:247:41: error: statement with no effect [-Werror=unused-value]
247 | #define arch_enter_lazy_mmu_mode() (LAZY_MMU_DEFAULT)
| ^
mm/kasan/shadow.c:322:9: note: in expansion of macro arch_enter_lazy_mmu_mode> 322 | arch_enter_lazy_mmu_mode();
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
switching these "functions" to static inlines fixes this up.
