+Subject: [PATCH] mips: Do not include hi and lo in clobber list for R6
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+From [1]
+"GCC 10 (PR 91233) won't silently allow registers that are not architecturally
+available to be present in the clobber list anymore, resulting in build failure
+for mips*r6 targets in form of:
+...
+.../sysdep.h:146:2: error: the register ‘lo’ cannot be clobbered in ‘asm’ for the current target
+  146 |  __asm__ volatile (      \
+      |  ^~~~~~~
+
+This is because base R6 ISA doesn't define hi and lo registers w/o DSP extension.
+This patch provides the alternative clobber list for r6 targets that won't include
+those registers."
+
+Since kernel 5.4 and mips support for generic vDSO [2], the kernel fail to build
+for mips r6 cpus with gcc 10 for the same reason as glibc.
