This part ended up in redundant code after touched by multiple people. [1] Commit3234282f33("x86, asm: Fix CFI macro invocations to deal with shortcomings in gas") added parentheses for defined expressions to support old gas for x86. [2] Commita22dcdb003("x86, asm: Fix ancient-GAS workaround") split the pattern into two to avoid parentheses for non-numeric expressions. [3] Commit95a2f6f72d("Partially revert patch that encloses asm-offset.h numbers in brackets") removed parentheses from numeric expressions as well because parentheses in MN10300 assembly have a special meaning (pointer access). Apparently, there is a conflict between [1] and [3]. After all, [3] took precedence, and a long time has passed since then. Now, merge the two patterns again because the first one is covered by the other. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@socionext.com> Reviewed-by: Matthias Kaehlcke <mka@chromium.org>
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.
