We want io.h primitives (readb(), etc.) to be extern inline. However, that requires the backing out-of-line implementation somewhere, preferably kept in sync with the inline ones. The way it's done is __EXTERN_INLINE macro that defaults to extern inline, but can be overridden in compilation unit where the out-of-line instance will be. That works, but it's brittle - we *must* make sure that asm/io.h is the very first include in such compilation units. There'd been a bunch of bugs of that sort in the past. Another issue is the choice of overriding definition for __EXTERN_INLINE; it must be either 'inline' or empty. Either will do for compilation purposes - inline void foo(...) {...} (without extern or static) is going to generate out-of-line instance. The difference is that 'definition without a prototype' heuristics trigger on void foo(void) { ... } but not on inline void foo(void) { ... } Most of the overrides go for 'inline'; in two cases (sys_jensen and core_t2) __EXTERN_INLINE is defined as empty. Without -Wmissing-prototypes it didn't matter, but now that we have that thing always on... Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Acked-by: Paul E.
