From c39866f268f89868df17724cd2262d121552d8c9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nathan Chancellor Date: Mon, 28 Sep 2020 15:48:54 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] arm/build: Always handle .ARM.exidx and .ARM.extab sections After turning on warnings for orphan section placement, enabling CONFIG_UNWINDER_FRAME_POINTER instead of CONFIG_UNWINDER_ARM causes thousands of warnings when clang + ld.lld are used: $ scripts/config --file arch/arm/configs/multi_v7_defconfig \ -d CONFIG_UNWINDER_ARM \ -e CONFIG_UNWINDER_FRAME_POINTER $ make -skj"$(nproc)" ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabi- LLVM=1 defconfig zImage ld.lld: warning: init/built-in.a(main.o):(.ARM.extab) is being placed in '.ARM.extab' ld.lld: warning: init/built-in.a(main.o):(.ARM.extab.init.text) is being placed in '.ARM.extab.init.text' ld.lld: warning: init/built-in.a(main.o):(.ARM.extab.ref.text) is being placed in '.ARM.extab.ref.text' ld.lld: warning: init/built-in.a(do_mounts.o):(.ARM.extab.init.text) is being placed in '.ARM.extab.init.text' ld.lld: warning: init/built-in.a(do_mounts.o):(.ARM.extab) is being placed in '.ARM.extab' ld.lld: warning: init/built-in.a(do_mounts_rd.o):(.ARM.extab.init.text) is being placed in '.ARM.extab.init.text' ld.lld: warning: init/built-in.a(do_mounts_rd.o):(.ARM.extab) is being placed in '.ARM.extab' ld.lld: warning: init/built-in.a(do_mounts_initrd.o):(.ARM.extab.init.text) is being placed in '.ARM.extab.init.text' ld.lld: warning: init/built-in.a(initramfs.o):(.ARM.extab.init.text) is being placed in '.ARM.extab.init.text' ld.lld: warning: init/built-in.a(initramfs.o):(.ARM.extab) is being placed in '.ARM.extab' ld.lld: warning: init/built-in.a(calibrate.o):(.ARM.extab.init.text) is being placed in '.ARM.extab.init.text' ld.lld: warning: init/built-in.a(calibrate.o):(.ARM.extab) is being placed in '.ARM.extab' These sections are handled by the ARM_UNWIND_SECTIONS define, which is only added to the list of sections when CONFIG_ARM_UNWIND is set. CONFIG_ARM_UNWIND is a hidden symbol that is only selected when CONFIG_UNWINDER_ARM is set so CONFIG_UNWINDER_FRAME_POINTER never handles these sections. According to the help text of CONFIG_UNWINDER_ARM, these sections should be discarded so that the kernel image size is not affected.
