If I add __noscs to __kern_hyp_va(), clang inlines the function again. __always_inline also works, as you pointed out. > Is this a known, er, thing, with clang-9? I can reproduce this with ToT clang as well. > I suspect repainting all KVM's 'inline' with __always_inline will fix it. (yuck!) I'll try > tomorrow. I think switching to __always_inline is the correct solution here. Sami
