Umm... That's not obvious - it only uses cpu_relax() in macros, so missing include would not cause problems if all actual users of those macros happen to pull the needed header by other means. Said that, we have 1) defined directly in asm/processor.h, using nothing but the stuff provided by compiler.h: alpha, arc, csky, loongarch, m68k, microblaze, nios2, openrisc, parisc, s390, sh, xtensa 2) same, using something in headers pulled by asm/processor.h itself: ia64 (needs asm/intrinsic.h) hexagon (needs asm/hexagon_vm.h) um (needs arch/um/include/linux/time-internal.h) 3) same, but defined in something pulled by asm/processor.h rather than in asm/processor.h itself; asm/vdso/processor.h is the common location - those are the cases when we share the same definition for kernel and vdso builds sparc (asm/processor_32.h or asm/processor_64.h) arm (asm/vdso/processor.h) arm64 (asm/vdso/processor.h) powerpc (asm/vdso/processor.h) x86 (asm/vdso/processor.h) riscv (asm/vdso/processor.h; needs several headers included there - jump_label.h, etc.) mips (asm/vdso/processor.h, needs asm/barrier.h, pulled from asm/processor.h by way of linux/atomic.h -> asm/atomic.h -> asm/barrier.h) So asm/processor.h is sufficient for working cpu_relax() and if some arch-independent code wants cpu_relax() it should pull either asm/processor.h or linux/processor.h
