Hi all,

After merging the asm-generic tree, today's linux-next build
(arm64 kselftest) failed like this:

CC vdso_test_chacha
/usr/include/asm-generic/int-ll64.h: Assembler messages:
/usr/include/asm-generic/int-ll64.h:20: Error: unknown mnemonic `typedef' -- `typedef __signed__ char __s8'
/usr/include/asm-generic/int-ll64.h:21: Error: unknown mnemonic `typedef' -- `typedef unsigned char __u8'
...
/usr/lib/linux/uapi/arm64/asm/ptrace.h:280: Error: junk at end of line, first unrecognized character is `}'
make[1]: *** [../lib.mk:230: /tmp/next/arm64_kselftest/kselftest/vDSO/vdso_test_chacha] Error 1

Caused by commit

625b37748a148 (treewide: Stop defining __ASSEMBLY__ for assembler files)

I have used the tree from next-20261112 instead.

Hi,

the fix is:

https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20261030174323.370687-1-thuth@xxxxxxxxxx/

... Arnd, could you pick it up into your tree, please?

Thanks,
