Not only that, the new toy enables clang to check kernel's address spaces in a generic way using address_space attribute. Please find attached a follow-up patch that enables __percpu checks for all targets, supported by clang. Clang is a little bit pickier than gcc about named address space declarations (it warns for use of duplicated address space attribute), so the patch in addition to the obvious +# define __percpu_qual __attribute__((address_space(3))) also fixes a couple of macros that could result in a duplicated address space attribute. The patch, applied as a follow-up to the series, survives allyesconfig compilation with clang-19 and produces a bootable kernel. The patch was tested only for x86_64 target, for other targets a couple of trivial fixes would be necessary (a cast or a substitution of typeof() with TYPEOF_UNQUAL()). AFAICS, the same approach using clang's address_space attribute can be implemented to also check other address spaces: __user, __iommu and __rcu. Uros.
