So instead of calling foo, I think you can use objcopy to call bar instead. To avoid the case of Rust core refering to symbols typically provided by the --rtlib={libgcc|compiler-rt}, what if we: 1. build core.o (with reference to the unfavorable symbols) 2. use objcopy to rename references in core.o to the symbols listed in this file; maybe prepend them with `rust_core_` or something. 3. provide this crate with panic'ing definitions, but for the renamed symbols. That way, enabling CONFIG_RUST=y won't hide the case where C code is triggering such libcalls from the C compiler? To restate the concern, I don't want CONFIG_RUST=y to hide that fact that someone wrote `float x, y; if (x != y) ...` in C code, where the C compiler will likely lower that to a libcall to __nesf2 since with the current approach in this patch, linkage would proceed. The current behavior is to intentionally fail to link. I think what I describe above may work to keep this intended behavior of the kernel's build system. Ah, looks like there's objcopy flags: --redefine-sym old=new Change the name of a symbol old, to new. This can be useful when one is trying link two things together for which you have no source, and there are name collisions. --redefine-syms=filename Apply --redefine-sym to each symbol pair "old new" listed in the file filename. filename is simply a flat file, with one symbol pair per line. Line comments may be introduced by the hash character. This option may be given more than once. So probably could start with my diff from above, but use --redefine-syms=filename instead of --strip-symbols=. > > > + __gesf2, > > + __lesf2, > > + __nesf2, > > + __unordsf2, > > +}); > > + > > +define_panicking_intrinsics!("`f64` should not be used", { > > + __unorddf2, > > +}); > > + > > +define_panicking_intrinsics!("`i128` should not be used", { > > + __ashrti3, > > + __muloti4, > > + __multi3, > > +}); > > + > > +define_panicking_intrinsics!("`u128` should not be used", { > > + __ashlti3, > > + __lshrti3, > > + __udivmodti4, > > + __udivti3, > > + __umodti3, > > +}); > > -- > > 2.37.1 > > > > > -- > Thanks, > ~Nick Desaulniers -- Thanks, ~Nick Desaulniers
