Subject: [PATCH fixes] riscv: Fix CONFIG_AS_HAS_INSN for new .insn usage
Date: Fri, 07 Nov 2025 14:56:59 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251107-riscv-fix-new-insn-usage-v1-1-9a186c5928a0@kernel.org> (raw)
After commit 44aa25c000b4 ("riscv: asm: use .insn for making custom
instructions"), builds using LLVM older that 19 or binutils older than
2.38 fail with:
arch/riscv/include/asm/vdso/processor.h: Assembler messages:

binutils gained support for '.insn <value>' in 2.38 [1] and LLVM gained
support in 19 [2]. Adjust the test for CONFIG_AS_HAS_INSN to ensure that
all versions of .insn are supported before being used.
