The header file in question was last changed by following commit
commit 66a5c40f60f5d88ad8d47ba6a4ba05892853fa1f kernel.h: removed REPEAT_BYTE from kernel.h
Thanks for the report. What is missing here are the steps to reproduce it here. E.g., I have an x86_64 machine, I can use QEMU if required.
The patch I just posted should fix it.
Cross building the selftests is not too hard, you need a cross toolchain with libc. There's some instructions on our wiki[1], the tldr is:
cd ~/tmp wget https://toolchains.bootlin.com/downloads/releases/toolchains/powerpc64le-pow... tar -xf powerpc64le-power8--glibc--stable-2023.11-1.tar.bz2 export CROSS_COMPILE=$PWD/powerpc64le-power8--glibc--stable-2023.11-1/bin/powerpc64le-linux- cd ~/src/linux export ARCH=powerpc make defconfig make headers make -C tools/testing/selftests/powerpc
cheers
