Subject: [PATCH v16 1/2] math64.h: provide rounddown_u64 variant for rounddown macro
Date: Wed, 25 Jun 2025 02:00:38 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250625000059.20040-1-ansuelsmth@gmail.com> (raw)
There is currently a problem with the usage of rounddown() macro with
u64 dividends. This causes compilation error on specific arch where
64-bit division is done on 32-bit system.
To be more specific GCC try to optimize the function and replace it
with __umoddi3() but this is actually not compiled in the kernel.
Example:
pwm-airoha.c:(.text+0x8f8): undefined reference to `__umoddi3'
To better handle this, introduce a variant of rounddown() macro,
rounddown_u64() that can be used exactly for this scenario.
The new rounddown_u64() in math64.h uses do_div() to do the heavy work
of handling internally all the magic for the 64-bit division on 32-bit
(and indirectly fix the compilation error).

Changes v16:
- Move to math64.h
- Fix spelling mistake
- Use inline function (to follow roundup_u64 pattern)
Changes v15:
- Add this patch
