Hi, This series stops <asm/processor.h> from including <asm/cpuid/api.h> since there is no code at the former which needs the latter. For this to work, modify all CPUID call sites that implicitly include the CPUID <asm/cpuid/api.h> header to explicitly include it instead This allows the CPUID API header to include <asm/processor.h> without inducing a circular dependency — which is needed for the upcoming CPUID model and parser. Changelog v4 ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Per feedback at: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/aH-dqcMWj3cFDos2@xxxxxxxxxx Remove the two patches doing the include lines alphabetical and section reorderings. I leave it to the maintainers to merge this series or version 3 of it: highest priority is to keep the CPUID parser work ongoing (by disentangling the headers…) Changelog v3 ~~~~~~~~~~~~ ( [PATCH v3 0/6] x86: Disentangle <asm/processor.h> dependency on CPUID headers https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20250722065448.413503-1-darwi@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ) * For the KVM CPUID call sites: arch/x86/kvm/mmu/mmu.c arch/x86/kvm/svm/sev.c arch/x86/kvm/svm/svm.c arch/x86/kvm/vmx/pmu_intel.c arch/x86/kvm/vmx/sgx.c arch/x86/kvm/vmx/vmx.c Let them explicitly include <asm/cpuid/api.h> instead of letting their internal arch/x86/kvm/cpuid.h header does it. The latter header does not need the former, so making it include a itnot just for the sake of its call sites was not correct. * While at it, modify /all/ call sites that use the CPUID API to explicitly include <asm/cpuid/api.h>. Previous iterations only modified the CPUID call sites which implicitly included the CPUID headers through <asm/processor.h>. Since we're at it anyway, there's no reason not to complete the task across the whole kernel tree. Thus, also convert below arch/x86/ sites: arch/x86/kernel/apic/apic.c arch/x86/kernel/cpu/sgx/driver.c arch/x86/kernel/cpu/vmware.c arch/x86/kernel/jailhouse.c arch/x86/kernel/kvm.c arch/x86/mm/pti.c arch/x86/pci/xen.c arch/x86/xen/enlighten_hvm.c arch/x86/xen/pmu.c arch/x86/xen/time.c and below drivers/ sites: drivers/gpu/drm/gma500/mmu.c drivers/net/ethernet/stmicro/stmmac/dwmac-intel.c drivers/ras/amd/fmpm.c drivers/virt/acrn/hsm.c drivers/xen/events/events_base.c drivers/xen/grant-table.c drivers/xen/xenbus/xenbus_xs.c to explicitly include the CPUID API header. * Fix the v2 i386 compilation error: https://lore.kernel.org/x86-cpuid/202507150403.hKKg9xjJ-lkp@xxxxxxxxx by making drivers/char/agp/efficeon-agp.c explicitly include the CPUID API. * Make sure that an "i386 allyesconfig" build is successful this time. * Based on v6.16-rc7. Changelog v2 ~~~~~~~~~~~~ ( [PATCH v2 0/6] x86: Disentangle <asm/processor.h> dependency on CPUID headers https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20250709203033.90125-1-darwi@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ) Remove the <asm/cpuid/types.h> include from <asm/processor.h> since only the upcoming CPUID model needed that — not current mainline code. That include was kept in v1, by mistake, because this series was originally part of the CPUID model patch queue. Due to the CPUID types include remove above, let arch/x86/kvm/reverse_cpuid.h include <asm/cpuid/types.h> since it references the CPUID_EAX..EDX macros. At this series v1, the KVM header implicitly included such CPUID types header through <asm/cpufeature.h>, through <asm/processor.h>. Drop the "x86/cpuid: Rename cpuid_leaf()/cpuid_subleaf() APIs" patch from this series. After a second look, it should be part of the CPUID model PQ instead. Changelog v1 ~~~~~~~~~~~~ ( [PATCH v1 0/7] x86: Disentangle <asm/processor.h> dependency on CPUID APIs https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20250612234010.572636-1-darwi@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ) This series avoids including the full CPUID API from <asm/processor.h>. That header only needs the CPUID data types and not the full API. Let <asm/processor.h> include <asm/cpuid/types.h> instead of <asm/cpuid/api.h>. Modify all CPUID call sites which implicitly included the CPUID API though <asm/processor.h> to explicitly include <asm/cpuid/api.h> instead. This work prepares for an upcoming v4 of the CPUID model: [PATCH v3 00/44] x86: Introduce a centralized CPUID data model https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20250612234010.572636-1-darwi@xxxxxxxxxxxxx where <asm/cpuid/api.h> needs to include <asm/processor.h>, thus creating a circular dependency if not resolved beforehand… Patches 1->19 of the v3 above had parts of this series circular dependency disentanglement. Per Boris' remarks above, merge the header includes reorderings into two patches only: one patch for x86 and one for drivers. The 0-day bot x86-32 compilation error: Re: [PATCH v3 41/44] x86/cpu: <asm/processor.h>: Do not include CPUID… https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/202506132039.imS2Pflx-lkp@xxxxxxxxx is also fixed in this series. Beside the call sites converted at CPUID model v3 above, this series also switches below files: arch/x86/kernel/cpu/microcode/core.c arch/x86/kernel/cpu/microcode/intel.c arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mshyperv.c drivers/cpufreq/longrun.c drivers/cpufreq/powernow-k7.c drivers/cpufreq/powernow-k8.c to explicitly include <asm/cpuid/api.h>. Based on v6.16-rc5. Thanks! 8<---- Ahmed S.
