| |
Hi Linus,
A proposed GCC asm extention:
https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2018-10/msg01931.html
allows adding the "inline" keyword to 'asm ("")' statements. The problem is that we're possibly redefining "inline" to "inline __attribute__((__always_inline__))" which makes the proposed:
asm volatile inline ("")
not compile.
However, since we've been depricating the use of the alternative inline keywords: "__inline__" and "__inline", and there are only a 'few' uses left of them in the tree:
$ git grep -e "\<__inline__\>" | wc -l 487 $ git grep -e "\<__inline\>" | wc -l 56 $ git grep -e "\<inline\>" | wc -l 69957
let's finish them off now.
Therefore I'm proposing to run:
git grep -l "\<__inline\(\|__\)\>" | while read file do sed -i -e 's/\<__inline\(\|__\)\>/inline/g' $file done
On your current tree, and apply the below fixup patch on top of that result.
This would then allow us to do something like (+- GCC feature tests):
#define asm_volatile(stmt...) asm volatile __inline__(stmt)
once that GCC patch lands.
