Hi Christophe,

First bad commit (maybe != root cause):

tree: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git master
head:   1140ab592e2ebf8153d2b322604031a8868ce7a5
commit: eacf4c0202654adfa94bbb17b5c5c77c0be14af8 powerpc: Enable OPTPROBES on PPC32
date:   3 weeks ago
config: powerpc-randconfig-r033-20210511 (attached as .config)
compiler: clang version 13.0.0 (https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project a0fed635fe1701470062495a6ffee1c608f3f1bc)

A clang issue ?


reproduce (this is a W=1 build):
         wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/intel/lkp-tests/master/sbin/make.cross -O ~/bin/make.cross
         chmod +x ~/bin/make.cross
         # install powerpc cross compiling tool for clang build
         # apt-get install binutils-powerpc-linux-gnu
         # https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=eacf4c0202654adfa94bbb17b5c5c77c0be14af8
         git remote add linus https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git
         git fetch --no-tags linus master
         git checkout eacf4c0202654adfa94bbb17b5c5c77c0be14af8

All errors (new ones prefixed by >>):

arch/powerpc/kernel/optprobes.c:34:1: error: unused function 'is_kprobe_ppc_optinsn_slot' [-Werror,-Wunused-function]
    DEFINE_INSN_CACHE_OPS(ppc_optinsn);
    ^
    include/linux/kprobes.h:306:20: note: expanded from macro 'DEFINE_INSN_CACHE_OPS'
    static inline bool is_kprobe_##__name##_slot(unsigned long addr)        \

That's a 'static inline', shouldn't generate an 'unused function' warning.
This is a W=1 build, which means that "inline" does not silence unused function warnings with clang because of commit 6863f5643dd7 ("kbuild: allow Clang to find unused static inline functions for W=1 build").

Cheers,
Nathan
