[PATCH] [Rebased for 5.4] powerpc/32: Fix boot failure with GCC latent entropy plugin

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

 



This is backport for 5.4

(cherry picked from commit bba496656a73fc1d1330b49c7f82843836e9feb1)

Boot fails with GCC latent entropy plugin enabled.

This is due to early boot functions trying to access 'latent_entropy'
global data while the kernel is not relocated at its final
destination yet.

As there is no way to tell GCC to use PTRRELOC() to access it,
disable latent entropy plugin in early_32.o and feature-fixups.o and
code-patching.o

Fixes: 38addce8b600 ("gcc-plugins: Add latent_entropy plugin")
