Subject: [PATCH] sparc: mark __arch_xchg() as __always_inline
Date: Wed, 28 Jun 2023 11:49:18 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230628094938.2318171-1-arnd@kernel.org> (raw)

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

An otherwise correct change to the atomic operations uncovered an
existing bug in the sparc __arch_xchg() function, which is calls
__xchg_called_with_bad_pointer() when its arguments are unknown at
compile time:

ERROR: modpost: "__xchg_called_with_bad_pointer" [lib/atomic64_test.ko] undefined!

This now happens because gcc determines that it's better to not inline the
function. Avoid this by just marking the function as __always_inline
to force the compiler to do the right thing here.
