Subject: [PATCH v2 1/1] arm: perf: Fix ARCH=arm build with GCC

LLVM ignores everything inside the if statement and doesn't generate
errors, but GCC doesn't ignore it, resulting in the following error:

drivers/perf/arm_pmuv3.c: In function ‘armv8pmu_write_evtype’:
include/linux/bits.h:34:29: error: left shift count >= width of type [-Werror=shift-count-overflow]
34 | (((~UL(0)) - (UL(1) << (l)) + 1) & \

Fix it by using GENMASK_ULL which doesn't overflow on arm32 (even though
the value is never used there).

As expected this fixes compilation on my end, too and it's nicer than
v1.

It would be nice if this could explain the overflow problem, i.e.

| The GENMASK() macro creates masks of type unsigned long, and we use this to
| geenrate the ARMV8_PMU_EVTYPE_TH and ARMV8_PMU_EVTYPE_TC constants. These
| include bits above bit 31, and generating these requires shifting more than the
| size of unsigned long on 32-bit ARM.
|
| Consequently when building for 32-bit arm, GCC warns about their use:
|
| drivers/perf/arm_pmuv3.c: In function 'armv8pmu_write_evtype':
| include/linux/bits.h:34:29: error: left shift count >= width of type [-Werror=shift-count-overflow]
| 34 | (((~UL(0)) - (UL(1) << (l)) + 1) & \
|
| ... though LLVM does not warn as the actual usage is not reachable on 32-bit
| ARM due to `if (IS_ENABLED(...)` checks.
|
| Avoid the warning by using GENMACK_ULL(), which doesn't overflow on 32-bit arm.

Thanks for this!

Will, Catalin, the broken commit is queued in the arm64 for-next/perf branch
(and merged into for-next/core); is this something we can easily fold in?

Mark.
