The build of avr32 allmodconfig fails with the error:

This means there is a direct 64 bit divide operation in the driver,
which we should identify and fix.

This driver will quite likely never be used on AVR32. Do we need to
fix this due to some other architectures?

yes, there is.

in function: kempld_wdt_set_stage_timeout()
remainder = do_div(stage_timeout64, prescaler);

Any idea how to fix it?

Not easy, however, prescaler value is ((1 << 21) - 1) which someone
might consider as (1 << 21) with lost in precision.

Thus, shift on 20 bits right, add last bit to the value and shift on 1
bit right more.

Sorry, I am missing something. do_div() should work fine with any 32 bit value
as divisor, no matter what that value is. Why does it fail here ? And why does
it work if I pass 0x1fffff as second parameter to do_div() directly ?

Please let me know what i can do here to help solve the problem.
linux-next continues to fail for avr32, and to make matters worse we
also have the similar problem in btrfs.

ERROR: "__avr32_udiv64" [fs/btrfs/btrfs.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "__avr32_udiv64" [drivers/watchdog/kempld_wdt.ko] undefined!

Adding Chris to CC if he has some idea how to solve this error for btrfs.

Subject: [PATCH] avr32: __div64_const32 is not ok

Building avr32 images may fail with errors such as

ERROR: "__avr32_udiv64" [fs/btrfs/btrfs.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "__avr32_udiv64" [drivers/watchdog/kempld_wdt.ko] undefined!

gcc for avr32 generates those symbols for certain constants used
as divisor in do_div(). The problem can be avoided by setting
__div64_const32_is_OK to false for the architecture.

It looks like this patch has fixed about the error about the watchdog but for some reason I am still getting the error about the btrfs.

ERROR: "__avr32_udiv64" [fs/btrfs/btrfs.ko] undefined!


Are you sure that this failure is limited to avr32 ?

Bisect for that problem points to commit "Btrfs: fix divide error upon chunk's stripe_len",
which modified stripe_len in struct map_lookup to 64 bit. map->stripe_length is used
at least once in a 64-bit divide operation, so I would expect to see more build failures.

A quick check shows that i386:allmodconfig now fails to build as well due to a 64-bit
divide operation in brtfs.
