From: Ingo Molnar <mingo@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit c2209ea55612efac75de0a58ef5f7394fae7fa0f ] When KEXEC is disabled, the UV build fails: arch/x86/platform/uv/uv_nmi.c:875:14: error: ‘uv_nmi_kexec_failed’ undeclared (first use in this function) Since uv_nmi_kexec_failed is only defined in the KEXEC_CORE #ifdef branch, this code cannot ever have been build tested: if (main) pr_err("UV: NMI kdump: KEXEC not supported in this kernel\n"); atomic_set(&uv_nmi_kexec_failed, 1); Nor is this use possible in uv_handle_nmi(): atomic_set(&uv_nmi_kexec_failed, 0); These bugs were introduced in this commit: d0a9964e9873: ("x86/platform/uv: Implement simple dump failover if kdump fails") Which added the uv_nmi_kexec_failed assignments to !KEXEC code, while making the definition KEXEC-only - apparently without testing the !KEXEC case. Instead of complicating the #ifdef maze, simplify the code by requiring X86_UV to depend on KEXEC_CORE. This pattern is present in other architectures as well. ( We'll remove the untested, 7 years old !KEXEC complications from the file in a separate commit. ) Fixes: d0a9964e9873: ("x86/platform/uv: Implement simple dump failover if kdump fails") Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Mike Travis <travis@xxxxxxx> Cc: linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@xxxxxxxxxx> --- arch/x86/Kconfig | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) diff --git a/arch/x86/Kconfig b/arch/x86/Kconfig index 80636caee07c..3ce5b5bd1dc4 100644 --- a/arch/x86/Kconfig +++ b/arch/x86/Kconfig @@ -495,6 +495,7 @@ config X86_UV depends on X86_EXTENDED_PLATFORM depends on NUMA depends on EFI + depends on KEXEC_CORE depends on X86_X2APIC depends on PCI ---help--- -- 2.30.2
