[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.4 10/10] gcov: Disable gcov build with GCC 10

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Leon Romanovsky <leonro@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit cfc905f158eaa099d6258031614d11869e7ef71c ]

GCOV built with GCC 10 doesn't initialize n_function variable.  This
produces different kernel panics as was seen by Colin in Ubuntu and me
in FC 32.

As a workaround, let's disable GCOV build for broken GCC 10 version.
