I'm getting couple of new stack size warnings that are all the result of the _NOCHECK. /git/arm-soc/mm/page_alloc.c: In function 'show_free_areas': /git/arm-soc/mm/page_alloc.c:4685:1: error: the frame size of 3368 bytes is larger than 3072 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=] } /git/arm-soc/lib/atomic64_test.c: In function 'test_atomic': /git/arm-soc/lib/atomic64_test.c:148:1: error: the frame size of 6528 bytes is larger than 3072 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=] } ^ /git/arm-soc/lib/atomic64_test.c: In function 'test_atomic64': /git/arm-soc/lib/atomic64_test.c:243:1: error: the frame size of 7112 bytes is larger than 3072 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=] This is with my previous set of patches already applied, so READ_ONCE should not cause problems. Reverting the READ_ONCE_NOCHECK() in atomic_read() and atomic64_read() back to READ_ONCE() I also get a build failure as a result of your patch, but this one is not addressed by using READ_ONCE(): In file included from /git/arm-soc/arch/x86/include/asm/atomic.h:7:0, from /git/arm-soc/include/linux/atomic.h:4, from /git/arm-soc/arch/x86/include/asm/thread_info.h:53, from /git/arm-soc/include/linux/thread_info.h:25, from /git/arm-soc/arch/x86/include/asm/preempt.h:6, from /git/arm-soc/include/linux/preempt.h:80, from /git/arm-soc/include/linux/spinlock.h:50, from /git/arm-soc/include/linux/mmzone.h:7, from /git/arm-soc/include/linux/gfp.h:5, from /git/arm-soc/include/linux/mm.h:9, from /git/arm-soc/mm/slub.c:12: /git/arm-soc/mm/slub.c: In function '__slab_free': /git/arm-soc/arch/x86/include/asm/cmpxchg.h:174:2: error: 'asm' operand has impossible constraints asm volatile(pfx "cmpxchg%c4b %2; sete %0" \ ^ /git/arm-soc/arch/x86/include/asm/cmpxchg.h:183:2: note: in expansion of macro '__cmpxchg_double' __cmpxchg_double(LOCK_PREFIX, p1, p2, o1, o2, n1, n2) ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ /git/arm-soc/include/asm-generic/atomic-instrumented.h:236:2: note: in expansion of macro 'arch_cmpxchg_double' arch_cmpxchg_double(____p1, (p2), (o1), (o2), (n1), (n2)); \ ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ /git/arm-soc/mm/slub.c:385:7: note: in expansion of macro 'cmpxchg_double' if (cmpxchg_double(&page->freelist, &page->counters, ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~ /git/arm-soc/scripts/Makefile.build:308: recipe for target 'mm/slub.o' failed http://pastebin.com/raw/qXVpi9Ev has the defconfig file I used, and I get the error with any gcc version I tried (4.9 through 7.0.1).
