Build results:

Failed builds:

Qemu test results:

Details are available at http://kerneltests.org/builders.

Build error log for um:defconfig:

ipc/sem.c: In function 'complexmode_tryleave':
ipc/sem.c:317:2: error: implicit declaration of function
'smp_store_release'
ipc/sem.c: In function 'sem_lock':
ipc/sem.c:370:3: error: implicit declaration of function 'smp_load_acquire'

Culprit is commit a198951bf258 ("ipc/sem.c: fix complex_count vs. simple
op race"),
and reverting it fixes the problem. Copying the patch author for feedback.

Oh, thanks!

I backported this to fix the problem:
commit 577f183acc88645eae116326cc2203dc88ea730c
Author: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@xxxxxxxxxx>

x86/um: reuse asm-generic/barrier.h

Everything should be fine now, let's see the results :).


Yes, all ok now.
