Test some bit clears/sets to make sure assembly doesn't change, and that the set_bit and clear_bit functions work and don't cause sparse warnings. Instruct Kbuild to build this file with extra warning level -Wextra, to catch new issues, and also doesn't hurt to build with C=1. This was used to test changes to arch/x86/include/asm/bitops.h. In particular, sparse (C=1) was very concerned when the last bit before a natural boundary, like 7, or 31, was being tested, as this causes sign extension (0xffffff7f) for instance when clearing bit 7. Recommended usage: make defconfig scripts/config -m CONFIG_TEST_BITOPS make modules_prepare make C=1 W=1 lib/test_bitops.ko objdump -S -d lib/test_bitops.ko insmod lib/test_bitops.ko rmmod lib/test_bitops.ko <check dmesg>, there should be no compiler/sparse warnings and no error messages in log.

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.
