Under certain conditions, the 64-bit '-mstack-protector-guard' flags may end up in the 32-bit vDSO flags, resulting in build failures due to the structure of clang's argument parsing of the stack protector options, which validates the arguments of the stack protector guard flags unconditionally in the frontend, choking on the 64-bit values when targeting 32-bit: clang: error: invalid value 'r13' in 'mstack-protector-guard-reg=', expected one of: r2 clang: error: invalid value 'r13' in 'mstack-protector-guard-reg=', expected one of: r2 make[3]: *** [arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso/Makefile:85: arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso/vgettimeofday-32.o] Error 1 make[3]: *** [arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso/Makefile:87: arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso/vgetrandom-32.o] Error 1 Remove these flags by adding them to the CC32FLAGSREMOVE variable, which already handles situations similar to this. Additionally, reformat and align a comment better for the expanding CONFIG_CC_IS_CLANG block. Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx # v6.1+ Signed-off-by: Nathan Chancellor <nathan@xxxxxxxxxx> --- I say "Under certain conditions" because I am not entirely sure what they are. I cannot reproduce this error in my host environment but I can reproduce it in TuxMake's environment, which our CI uses: https://storage.tuxsuite.com/public/clangbuiltlinux/continuous-integration2/builds/2o9p6AV0oOjkNTPVHNoVckfOf5V/build.log $ tuxmake \ -a powerpc \ -k ppc64_guest_defconfig \ -r podman \ -t clang-nightly \ LLVM=1 \ config default ... clang: error: invalid value 'r13' in 'mstack-protector-guard-reg=', expected one of: r2 clang: error: invalid value 'r13' in 'mstack-protector-guard-reg=', expected one of: r2 I suspect that make 4.4 could play a difference here but the solution is quite simple here (since it is already weird with reusing flags) so I figured it was just worth doing this regardless of what the underlying reason is. --- arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso/Makefile | 8 ++++++-- 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso/Makefile b/arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso/Makefile index 31ca5a5470047e7ac0a0f8194fd59c6a3b453b4d..c568cad6a22e6b8a8bcb04463b7c850306364804 100644 --- a/arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso/Makefile +++ b/arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso/Makefile @@ -54,10 +54,14 @@ ldflags-y += $(filter-out $(CC_AUTO_VAR_INIT_ZERO_ENABLER) $(CC_FLAGS_FTRACE) -W CC32FLAGS := -m32 CC32FLAGSREMOVE := -mcmodel=medium -mabi=elfv1 -mabi=elfv2 -mcall-aixdesc - # This flag is supported by clang for 64-bit but not 32-bit so it will cause - # an unused command line flag warning for this file. ifdef CONFIG_CC_IS_CLANG +# This flag is supported by clang for 64-bit but not 32-bit so it will cause +# an unused command line flag warning for this file.
