allmodconfig + CONFIG_LTO_CLANG_THIN=y fails to build due to following
linker errors:

  ld.lld: error: irqbypass.c:(function __guest_enter: .text+0x21CC):
  relocation R_AARCH64_CONDBR19 out of range: 2031220 is not in
  [-1048576, 1048575]; references hyp_panic
  >>> defined in vmlinux.o

  ld.lld: error: irqbypass.c:(function __guest_enter: .text+0x21E0):
  relocation R_AARCH64_ADR_PREL_LO21 out of range: 2031200 is not in
  [-1048576, 1048575]; references hyp_panic
  >>> defined in vmlinux.o

As LTO is not really necessary for the hypervisor code, disable it for
the hyp directory to fix the build.

I assume this message is only an oddity, right? Because
__guest_enter() is as far as you can imagine from irqbypass.c...

Can you shed some light on what the problem is exactly?

Can this be reduced to the nvhe part of the tree? The rest of the
hypervisor should support being built with LTO, I'd expect. Or am I
missing something more significant?

Thanks,

I'm not sure what's up with the filename in the error message. Fangrui
or Nick probably have a better idea.

I assume hyp_panic() ends up being placed too far from __guest_enter()
when the kernel is large enough. Possibly something to do with LLVM
always splitting functions into separate sections with LTO. I'm not
sure why the linker cannot shuffle things around to make everyone
happy in this case, but I confirmed that this patch also fixes the
build issue for me:

No, this error appears to be about hyp_panic() in the vhe code. While
I'm not sure how beneficial LTO is in hypervisor code, there shouldn't
be any other reason we can't use it there.

No, this error appears to be about hyp_panic() in the vhe code. While
I'm not sure how beneficial LTO is in hypervisor code, there shouldn't
be any other reason we can't use it there.

I'm not sure what's up with the filename in the error message. Fangrui
or Nick probably have a better idea.

I assume hyp_panic() ends up being placed too far from __guest_enter()
when the kernel is large enough. Possibly something to do with LLVM
always splitting functions into separate sections with LTO. I'm not
sure why the linker cannot shuffle things around to make everyone
happy in this case, but I confirmed that this patch also fixes the
build issue for me:

No, this error appears to be about hyp_panic() in the vhe code. While

We're getting into black-magic territory here. Why wouldn't hyp_panic
be in the .text section already?

The VHE part of the hypervisor is the kernel itself, and not any
different from the rest of the code. It should be able to benefit from
LTO. On the contrary, the nVHE part is what could do without LTO,
given that it is essentially a separate object that happens to be
bundled with the kernel.

It's not quite black magic. LLVM essentially flips on
-ffunction-sections with LTO and therefore, hyp_panic() will be in
.text.hyp_panic in vmlinux.o, while __guest_enter() will be in .text.
Everything ends up in .text when we link vmlinux, of course.

$ readelf --sections vmlinux.o | grep hyp_panic
  [3936] .text.hyp_panic   PROGBITS         0000000000000000  004b56e4

Note that disabling LTO here has essentially the same effect as using
__section(".text"). It stops the compiler from splitting these
functions into .text.* sections and makes it less likely that
hyp_panic() ends up too far away from __guest_enter().

If neither of these workarounds sound appealing, I suppose we could
alternatively change hyp/entry.S to use adr_l for hyp_panic. Thoughts?

Note that disabling LTO here has essentially the same effect as using
__section(".text"). It stops the compiler from splitting these
functions into .text.* sections and makes it less likely that
hyp_panic() ends up too far away from __guest_enter().

If neither of these workarounds sound appealing, I suppose we could
alternatively change hyp/entry.S to use adr_l for hyp_panic. Thoughts?

That would be an actual fix instead of a workaround, as it would
remove existing assumptions about the relative locations of the two
objects. I guess you need to fix both instances with something such
as:

Agree with replacing the conditional branches that refer to external
symbols: the compiler never emits those, for the reason we are seeing
here, i.e., the range is simply insufficient.

But let's just use 'b hyp_panic' instead, no?

A quick grep gives me

$ objdump -r vmlinux.o |grep BR19

So there are definitely a few other cases that require another look.

Agree with replacing the conditional branches that refer to external
symbols: the compiler never emits those, for the reason we are seeing
here, i.e., the range is simply insufficient.

But let's just use 'b hyp_panic' instead, no?

Alright, this seems to work for me:

But when I say work, I mean this fixes the allmodconfig build with
LTO, and my kernel boots at EL2. I don't actually have a way to
properly test KVM on arm64. If nobody sees obvious issues here, I can
send a proper patch a bit later.

These two are in __memmove. This shouldn't be an issue, at least with LTO.

It looks like all the nvhe code is linked together into kvm_nvhe.o, so
I don't think these will cause problems either.

It looks like all the nvhe code is linked together into kvm_nvhe.o, so
I don't think these will cause problems either.
