In order for it to test an LTO build, it would need to enable LTO_CLANG explicitly though, in addition to LLVM=1. > I also got an error for > ARCH=arm64 allyesconfig + CONFIG_LTO_CLANG=y > > > > $ make ARCH=arm64 LLVM=1 LLVM_IAS=1 > CROSS_COMPILE=~/tools/aarch64-linaro-7.5/bin/aarch64-linux-gnu- > -j24 > > ... > > GEN .version > CHK include/generated/compile.h > UPD include/generated/compile.h > CC init/version.o > AR init/built-in.a > GEN .tmp_initcalls.lds > GEN .tmp_symversions.lds > LTO vmlinux.o > MODPOST vmlinux.symvers > MODINFO modules.builtin.modinfo > GEN modules.builtin > LD .tmp_vmlinux.kallsyms1 > ld.lld: error: undefined symbol: __compiletime_assert_905 > >>> referenced by irqbypass.c > >>> vmlinux.o:(jeq_imm) > make: *** [Makefile:1161: vmlinux] Error 1 I can reproduce this with ToT LLVM and it's BUILD_BUG_ON_MSG(..., "value too large for the field") in drivers/net/ethernet/netronome/nfp/bpf/jit.c. Specifically, the FIELD_FIT / __BF_FIELD_CHECK macro in ur_load_imm_any. This compiles just fine with an earlier LLVM revision, so it could be a relatively recent regression. I'll take a look. Thanks for catching this! Sami
