The add_ssaaaa, sub_ddmmss, umul_ppmm and udiv_qrnnd macros originate
from GCC's longlong.h which in turn was copied from GMP's longlong.h a
few decades ago.
This was found when compiling with clang:
arch/powerpc/math-emu/fnmsub.c:46:2: error: invalid use of a cast in a
inline asm context requiring an l-value: remove the cast or build with
-fheinous-gnu-extensions
FP_ADD_D(R, T, B);
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
...
./arch/powerpc/include/asm/sfp-machine.h:283:27: note: expanded from
macro 'sub_ddmmss'
: "=r" ((USItype)(sh)), \
~~~~~~~~~~^~~
Segher points out: this was fixed in GCC over 16 years ago
( https://gcc.gnu.org/r56600 ), and in GMP (where it comes from)
presumably before that.
Update the add_ssaaaa, sub_ddmmss, umul_ppmm and udiv_qrnnd macros to
the latest GCC version in order to git rid of the invalid casts. These
were taken as-is from GCC's longlong in order to make future syncs
obvious. Other parts of sfp-machine.h were left as-is as the file
contains more features than present in longlong.h.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
