Subject[BUG]: KVM: arm64: Fix symbol dependency in __hyp_call_panic_nvhe
From
Date
Hi,
it seems as if your patch

34f379956e9d7 ("KVM: arm64: Fix symbol dependency in __hyp_call_panic_nvhe")
[ Upstream commit b38b298aa4397e2dc74a89b4dd3eac9e59b64c96 ]

fails to compile in v5.8.7 for me (using an aarch64 gcc 4.9 cross-toolchain to try
to build a kernel for the PinePhone):

CC arch/arm64/kvm/hyp/switch.o - due to target missing
arch/arm64/kvm/hyp/switch.c: In function 'hyp_panic':
arch/arm64/kvm/hyp/switch.c:904:2: error: impossible constraint in 'asm'
asm volatile("ldr %0, =%1" : "=r" (str_va) : "S" (__hyp_panic_string));
^

I can find the commit b38b298aa4397e2dc74a89b4dd3eac9e59b64c96 in upstream
but not the affected file. There is also "KVM: arm64: Split hyp/switch.c to VHE/nVHE"
which does a cleanup and rename and v5.9-rc4 compiles fine.

With a git revert 34f379956e9d7 on v5.8.7 I can compile without problems.

So something seems to be incomplete or premature with the backport.

BR and thanks,
Nikolaus Schaller
