[PATCH 4.19 39/84] vmlinux.lds.h: Handle clang's module.{c,d}tor sections

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

 



From: Nathan Chancellor <nathan@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 848378812e40152abe9b9baf58ce2004f76fb988 upstream.

A recent change in LLVM causes module_{c,d}tor sections to appear when
CONFIG_K{A,C}SAN are enabled, which results in orphan section warnings
because these are not handled anywhere:

ld.lld: warning: arch/x86/pci/built-in.a(legacy.o):(.text.asan.module_ctor) is being placed in '.text.asan.module_ctor'
ld.lld: warning: arch/x86/pci/built-in.a(legacy.o):(.text.asan.module_dtor) is being placed in '.text.asan.module_dtor'
ld.lld: warning: arch/x86/pci/built-in.a(legacy.o):(.text.tsan.module_ctor) is being placed in '.text.tsan.module_ctor'

Fangrui explains: "the function asan.module_ctor has the SHF_GNU_RETAIN
flag, so it is in a separate section even with -fno-function-sections
(default)".

Place them in the TEXT_TEXT section so that these technologies continue
to work with the newer compiler versions. All of the KASAN and KCSAN
KUnit tests continue to pass after this change.
