This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled x86/speculation: Use DECLARE_PER_CPU for x86_spec_ctrl_current to the 4.14-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: x86-speculation-use-declare_per_cpu-for-x86_spec_ctrl_current.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.14 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From foo@baz Mon Oct 31 07:55:50 AM CET 2022 From: Suraj Jitindar Singh <surajjs@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 27 Oct 2022 13:55:44 -0700 Subject: x86/speculation: Use DECLARE_PER_CPU for x86_spec_ctrl_current To: <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: <surajjs@xxxxxxxxxx>, <sjitindarsingh@xxxxxxxxx>, <cascardo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>, <kvm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>, <pbonzini@xxxxxxxxxx>, <jpoimboe@xxxxxxxxxx>, <peterz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>, <x86@xxxxxxxxxx> Message-ID: <20221027205544.17949-4-surajjs@xxxxxxxxxx> From: Nathan Chancellor <nathan@xxxxxxxxxx> commit db886979683a8360ced9b24ab1125ad0c4d2cf76 upstream. Clang warns: arch/x86/kernel/cpu/bugs.c:58:21: error: section attribute is specified on redeclared variable [-Werror,-Wsection] DEFINE_PER_CPU(u64, x86_spec_ctrl_current); ^ arch/x86/include/asm/nospec-branch.h:283:12: note: previous declaration is here extern u64 x86_spec_ctrl_current; ^ 1 error generated. The declaration should be using DECLARE_PER_CPU instead so all attributes stay in sync.
