Subject: [merged mm-stable] percpu-replace-__assembly__-with-__assembler__-in-percpu-defsh-header-file.patch removed from -mm tree
Date: Tue, 04 Aug 2026 19:22:43 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260805022244.6F4831F00A3A@smtp.kernel.org> (raw)
The quilt patch titled
Subject: percpu: replace __ASSEMBLY__ with __ASSEMBLER__ in percpu-defs.h header file
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
percpu-replace-__assembly__-with-__assembler__-in-percpu-defsh-header-file.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Subject: percpu: replace __ASSEMBLY__ with __ASSEMBLER__ in percpu-defs.h header file
Date: Fri, 19 Jun 2026 17:47:04 +0200
While the GCC and Clang compilers already define __ASSEMBLER__
automatically when compiling assembly code, __ASSEMBLY__ is a macro that
only gets defined by the Makefiles in the kernel. This can be very
confusing when switching between userspace and kernelspace coding, or when
dealing with uapi headers that rather should use __ASSEMBLER__ instead.
So let's standardize now on the __ASSEMBLER__ macro that is provided by
the compilers.
This is a completely mechanical patch (done with a simple "sed -i"
statement.
