There are two reasons for build failure on arm64, arm, x86_64 and i386. For arm64 we have identified missing patch, Patch "efd00c7 arm64: Add MIDR encoding for HiSilicon Taishan CPUs" needs to be bacported as well, for arm, x86_64 and i386 build error log, ------------------------------------ net/ipv6/addrconf.c: In function 'addrconf_init': net/ipv6/addrconf.c:6747:22: error: 'blackhole_netdev' undeclared (first use in this function); did you mean 'alloc_netdev'? bdev = ipv6_add_dev(blackhole_netdev); ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ alloc_netdev net/ipv6/addrconf.c:6747:22: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in net/ipv6/addrconf.c: In function 'addrconf_cleanup': net/ipv6/addrconf.c:6839:18: error: 'blackhole_netdev' undeclared (first use in this function); did you mean 'alloc_netdev'? addrconf_ifdown(blackhole_netdev, 2); ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ alloc_netdev For arm64 build error log, --------------------------------------- arch/arm64/kernel/cpufeature.c: In function 'unmap_kernel_at_el0': arch/arm64/kernel/cpufeature.c:909:21: error: 'MIDR_HISI_TSV110' undeclared (first use in this function); did you mean 'GICR_ISACTIVER0'?
