Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 4.19 010/106] efi/libstub/x86: Work around LLVM ELF quirk build regression
Date: Mon,  8 Jun 2020 19:21:02 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200608232238.3368589-10-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200608232238.3368589-1-sashal@kernel.org>

From: Ard Biesheuvel <ardb@kernel.org>

[ Upstream commit f77767ed5f4d398b29119563155e4ece2dfeee13 ]

When building the x86 EFI stub with Clang, the libstub Makefile rules
that manipulate the ELF object files may throw an error like:

    STUBCPY drivers/firmware/efi/libstub/efi-stub-helper.stub.o
  strip: drivers/firmware/efi/libstub/efi-stub-helper.stub.o: Failed to find link section for section 10
  objcopy: drivers/firmware/efi/libstub/efi-stub-helper.stub.o: Failed to find link section for section 10

This is the result of a LLVM feature [0] where symbol references are
stored in a LLVM specific .llvm_addrsig section in a non-transparent way,
causing generic ELF tools such as strip or objcopy to choke on them.

So force the compiler not to emit these sections, by passing the
appropriate command line option.
