From: Andrea Righi Date: Sun, 10 May 2026 17:52:11 +0000 (+0200) Subject: selftests/sched_ext: Fix build error in dequeue selftest X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=3788e32516530dee66cf9186f846480a16799b05;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Fstable.git selftests/sched_ext: Fix build error in dequeue selftest Building the dequeue selftest with newer compilers (e.g., gcc 16) triggers the following error: dequeue.c:28:22: error: variable 'sum' set but not used The 'volatile' qualifier prevents the writes from being optimized away, but does not silence the unused variable 'sum' is indeed only written and never read. Consume 'sum' via an empty asm() with a register input constraint. This forces the compiler to keep the accumulated value (preserving the CPU stress loop) and avoiding the build error.
