From 55bea6d0c39b08b7113fec5b21e97d62619bcc4a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Josh Poimboeuf Date: Wed, 1 Apr 2020 13:23:27 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] objtool: Support Clang non-section symbols in ORC generation When compiling the kernel with AS=clang, objtool produces a lot of warnings: warning: objtool: missing symbol for section .text warning: objtool: missing symbol for section .init.text warning: objtool: missing symbol for section .ref.text It then fails to generate the ORC table. The problem is that objtool assumes text section symbols always exist. But the Clang assembler is aggressive about removing them. When generating relocations for the ORC table, objtool always tries to reference instructions by their section symbol offset. If the section symbol doesn't exist, it bails. Do a fallback: when a section symbol isn't available, reference a function symbol instead.
