Subject: [RFC PATCH 17/36] arm64: remove daifflags.h
Date: Thu, 9 Jul 2026 13:13:14 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260709121333.23507-18-vladimir.murzin@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260709121333.23507-1-vladimir.murzin@arm.com>
From: Ada Couprie Diaz <ada.coupriediaz@arm.com>
Interrupt masking is now split in different APIs and `local_daif_...`
functions are not in use anymore.
The `DAIF_...` masks defines are now in `asm/interrupts/common_flags.h`,
so we can safely remove `daifflags.h` and all `#include`s referring to it.
Only kprobes.c and process.c use `DAIF_...` masks defines, so add the
new header there.
