Hi Christophe, Thank you for the patch! Yet something to improve: [auto build test ERROR on powerpc/next] [also build test ERROR on v5.6-rc3 next-20200226] [if your patch is applied to the wrong git tree, please drop us a note to help improve the system. BTW, we also suggest to use '--base' option to specify the base tree in git format-patch, please see https://stackoverflow.com/a/37406982] url: https://github.com/0day-ci/linux/commits/Christophe-Leroy/Reduce-ifdef-mess-in-ptrace/20200227-011143 base: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/powerpc/linux.git next config: powerpc-defconfig (attached as .config) compiler: powerpc64-linux-gcc (GCC) 7.5.0 reproduce: wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/intel/lkp-tests/master/sbin/make.cross -O ~/bin/make.cross chmod +x ~/bin/make.cross # save the attached .config to linux build tree GCC_VERSION=7.5.0 make.cross ARCH=powerpc If you fix the issue, kindly add following tag Reported-by: kbuild test robot Note: the linux-review/Christophe-Leroy/Reduce-ifdef-mess-in-ptrace/20200227-011143 HEAD 14a582f53275332199397e25fe49bd2597d4cb19 builds fine.
