The inline keyword actually does not guarantee that the compiler will inline a functions. Whenever the goal is to actually inline a function, __always_inline should always be preferred instead. __always_inline is also needed for further optimizations which will come up in a follow-up patch. Inline all the bit-find function which have a custom m68k assembly implementation, namely: __ffs(), ffs(), ffz(), __fls(), fls(). On linux v6.7 allyesconfig with GCC 13.2.1, it does not impact the final size, meaning that, overall, those function were already inlined on modern GCCs: $ size --format=GNU vmlinux.before vmlinux.after text data bss total filename 60457956 70953665 2288644 133700265 vmlinux.before 60457964 70953697 2288644 133700305 vmlinux.after Reference: commit 8dd5032d9c54 ("x86/asm/bitops: Force inlining of test_and_set_bit and friends") Link: https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/8dd5032d9c54 Signed-off-by: Vincent Mailhol <mailhol.vincent@xxxxxxxxxx> --- arch/m68k/include/asm/bitops.h | 14 +++++++------- 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) diff --git a/arch/m68k/include/asm/bitops.h b/arch/m68k/include/asm/bitops.h index 14c64a6f1217..a8b23f897f24 100644 --- a/arch/m68k/include/asm/bitops.h +++ b/arch/m68k/include/asm/bitops.h @@ -465,7 +465,7 @@ static inline int find_next_bit(const unsigned long *vaddr, int size, * ffz = Find First Zero in word.
