Subject: [PATCH 1/2] powerpc64/bpf: Fix build break in bpf_jit_emit_func_call_rel()
Date: Wed, 29 Jul 2026 21:33:49 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <aafc721911eefc4ee376e27a0f4cebb82e3ee336.1785339155.git.skb99@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1785339155.git.skb99@linux.ibm.com>
From: Madhavan Srinivasan <maddy@linux.ibm.com>
With CONFIG_PPC_KERNEL_PCREL enabled, build breaks with below error:
CC mm/dmapool.o
CC fs/readdir.o
arch/powerpc/net/bpf_jit_comp64.c: In function 'bpf_jit_emit_func_call_rel':
arch/powerpc/net/bpf_jit_comp64.c:475:13: error: unused variable 'ret' [-Werror=unused-variable]
475 | int ret;
| ^~~
commit b55b6b9ad76c ("powerpc64/bpf: Add powerpc64 JIT support for timed may_goto")
introduced "ret" variable to bpf_jit_emit_func_call_rel() and it is used only in
else block of CONFIG_PPC_KERNEL_PCREL, fix by adding a "__maybe_unused"
Fixes: b55b6b9ad76c ("powerpc64/bpf: Add powerpc64 JIT support for timed may_goto")
