Hi, Kees,
With the default -O2, this code tests fine in gcc 11/clang 12, but
doesn't work in gcc 7.5.0. In 7.5.0, the generated code is as follows:
bl ffff8000088335c0 <lkdtm_noscs_set_lr>
nop ## return address of lkdtm_noscs_set_lr
adrp x0, ffff80000962b000 <kallsyms_token_index+0xe5908> ## address of "&&unexpected"
The address of "&&unexpected" is still not guaranteed to always be the
same as the return address of lkdtm_noscs_set_lr, so I had to add
__no_optimize attribute here.
The code compiled under __no_optimize in above versions works fine, but
I saw the following description in the gcc user manual:
"You may not use this mechanism to jump to code in a different function.
If you do that, totally unpredictable things happen."
So there might be some risk here that we might not be able to run this
test case stably across all compiler versions, probably we still have to
use two test cases to complete this.
