There is a bug in the LLVM implementation of KASAN and GCOV that makes these options incompatible with the CFI_ICALL_NORMALIZE_INTEGERS option. The bug has already been fixed in llvm/clang [1] and rustc [2]. However, Kconfig currently has no way to gate features on the LLVM version inside rustc, so we cannot write down a precise `depends on` clause in this case. Instead, a `def_bool` option is defined for whether CFI_ICALL_NORMALIZE_INTEGERS is available, and its default value is set to false when GCOV or KASAN are turned on. End users using a patched clang/rustc can turn on the HAVE_CFI_ICALL_NORMALIZE_INTEGERS option directly to override this. An alternative solution is to inspect a binary created by clang or rustc to see whether the faulty CFI tags are in the binary. This would be a precise check, but it would involve hard-coding the *hashed* version of the CFI tag. This is because there's no way to get clang or rustc to output the unhased version of the CFI tag. Relying on the precise hashing algorithm using by CFI seems too fragile, so I have not pursued this option. Besides, this kind of hack is exactly what lead to the LLVM bug in the first place. If the CFI_ICALL_NORMALIZE_INTEGERS option is used without CONFIG_RUST, then we actually can perform a precise check today: just compare the clang version number. This works since clang and llvm are always updated in lockstep. However, encoding this in Kconfig would give the HAVE_CFI_ICALL_NORMALIZE_INTEGERS option a dependency on CONFIG_RUST, which is not possible as the reverse dependency already exists. HAVE_CFI_ICALL_NORMALIZE_INTEGERS is defined to be a `def_bool` instead of `bool` to avoid asking end users whether they want to turn on the option. Turning it on explicitly is something only experts should do, so making it hard to do so is not an issue. I added a `depends on CFI_CLANG` clause to the new Kconfig option. I'm not sure whether that makes sense or not, but it doesn't seem to make a big difference. In a future kernel release, I would like to add a Kconfig option similar to CLANG_VERSION/RUSTC_VERSION for inspecting the version of the LLVM inside rustc. Once that feature lands, this logic will be replaced with a precise version check. This check is not being introduced here to avoid introducing a new _VERSION constant in a fix.
