[PATCH] openrisc: define arch-specific version of nop()
From: Brian Masney
Date: Tue Jan 20 2026 - 12:07:54 EST
When compiling a driver written for MIPS on OpenRISC that uses the nop()
function, it fails due to the following error:
drivers/watchdog/pic32-wdt.c: Assembler messages:
drivers/watchdog/pic32-wdt.c:125: Error: unrecognized instruction `nop'
The driver currently uses the generic version of nop() from
include/asm-generic/barrier.h:
#ifndef nop
#define nop() asm volatile ("nop")
#endif
Let's fix this on OpenRISC by defining an architecture-specific version
of nop().
This was tested by performing an allmodconfig openrisc cross compile on
an aarch64 host.
