We want io.h primitives (readb(), etc.) to be extern inline.
However, that requires the backing out-of-line implementation
somewhere, preferably kept in sync with the inline ones.
The way it's done is __EXTERN_INLINE macro that defaults to
extern inline, but can be overridden in compilation unit where
the out-of-line instance will be.
That works, but it's brittle - we *must* make sure that asm/io.h
is the very first include in such compilation units. There'd
been a bunch of bugs of that sort in the past.
Another issue is the choice of overriding definition for
__EXTERN_INLINE; it must be either 'inline' or empty. Either
will do for compilation purposes - inline void foo(...) {...}
(without extern or static) is going to generate out-of-line
instance. The difference is that 'definition without a
prototype' heuristics trigger on
void foo(void)
{
...
}
but not on
inline void foo(void)
{
...
}
Most of the overrides go for 'inline'; in two cases (sys_jensen
and core_t2) __EXTERN_INLINE is defined as empty. Without
-Wmissing-prototypes it didn't matter, but now that we have
that thing always on...

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 reStructuredText 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.
