The problem is that objtool ignores handle_external_interrupt_irqoff() (because it has the STACK_FRAME_NON_STANDARD annotation), and the 'ignore' logic is a bit crude. Because that function is ignored, the tail call isn't detected (as you pointed out). Which confuses the static noreturn detection logic. The proper fix would be to move that thunk call code to proper asm, where we can add some unwind hints, and then get rid of the STACK_FRAME_NON_STANDARD. But, in the interest of being lazy, here's the easiest fix for now. I'll need to run some builds to make sure it doesn't break anything. diff --git a/tools/objtool/check.c b/tools/objtool/check.c index e034a8f24f46..90a66891441a 100644 --- a/tools/objtool/check.c +++ b/tools/objtool/check.c @@ -619,7 +619,7 @@ static int add_jump_destinations(struct objtool_file *file) if (!is_static_jump(insn)) continue; - if (insn->ignore || insn->offset == FAKE_JUMP_OFFSET) + if (insn->offset == FAKE_JUMP_OFFSET) continue; reloc = find_reloc_by_dest_range(file->elf, insn->sec,
