Anton says: In commit4db7327194("powerpc: Add option to use jump label for cpu_has_feature()") and commitc12e6f24d4("powerpc: Add option to use jump label for mmu_has_feature()") we added: BUILD_BUG_ON(!__builtin_constant_p(feature)) to cpu_has_feature() and mmu_has_feature() in order to catch usage issues (such as cpu_has_feature(cpu_has_feature(X), which has happened once in the past). Unfortunately LLVM isn't smart enough to resolve this, and it errors out. I work around it in my clang/LLVM builds of the kernel, but I have just discovered that it causes a lot of issues for the bcc (eBPF) trace tool (which uses LLVM). For now just #ifdef it away for clang builds.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
