Subject: [PATCH v5 1/2] x86/purgatory: Disable various profiling and sanitizing options
Date: Thu, 12 Mar 2020 12:49:50 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200312114951.56009-1-hdegoede@redhat.com> (raw)

Since the purgatory is a special stand-alone binary, we need to disable
various profiling and sanitizing options. Having these options enabled
typically will cause dependency on various special symbols exported by
special libs / stubs used by these frameworks. Since the purgatory is
special we do not link against these stubs causing missing symbols in
the purgatory if we do not disable these options.

This commit syncs the set of disabled profiling and sanitizing options
with that from drivers/firmware/efi/libstub/Makefile, adding
-DDISABLE_BRANCH_PROFILING to the CFLAGS and setting:

GCOV_PROFILE                    := n
UBSAN_SANITIZE                  := n

This fixes broken references to ftrace_likely_update when
CONFIG_TRACE_BRANCH_PROFILING is enabled and to __gcov_init and
__gcov_exit when CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL is enabled.

Changes in v5:
-Not only add -DDISABLE_BRANCH_PROFILING to the CFLAGS but also set:
 GCOV_PROFILE                    := n
 UBSAN_SANITIZE                  := n

Changes in v4:
-This is a new patch in v4 of this series
