I am trying to test this patch using clang-9 tip: # clang -v clang version 9.0.0 (g...@github.com:llvm-mirror/clang.git 6ed0749151866894a67a3e7eefdc1f3a547daa0e) (g...@github.com:llvm-mirror/llvm.git a10a70238ace1093cad3adeb94814b422bd1b5c1) but I get a lot of errors similar to the one below: In file included from ~/linux/arch/x86/events/amd/core.c:11: ~/linux/arch/x86/events/amd/../perf_event.h:824:21: error: invalid output size for constraint '=q' u64 disable_mask = __this_cpu_read(cpu_hw_events.perf_ctr_virt_mask); ^ ~/linux/include/linux/percpu-defs.h:447:2: note: expanded from macro '__this_cpu_read' raw_cpu_read(pcp); \ ^ ~/linux/include/linux/percpu-defs.h:421:28: note: expanded from macro 'raw_cpu_read' #define raw_cpu_read(pcp) __pcpu_size_call_return(raw_cpu_read_, pcp) ^ ~/linux/include/linux/percpu-defs.h:322:23: note: expanded from macro '__pcpu_size_call_return' case 1: pscr_ret__ = stem##1(variable); break; \ ^ <scratch space>:110:1: note: expanded from here raw_cpu_read_1 ^ ~/linux/arch/x86/include/asm/percpu.h:394:30: note: expanded from macro 'raw_cpu_read_1' #define raw_cpu_read_1(pcp) percpu_from_op(, "mov", pcp) ^ ~/linux/arch/x86/include/asm/percpu.h:189:15: note: expanded from macro 'percpu_from_op' : "=q" (pfo_ret__) \ Could you please tell me which version of the compiler did you use?
