Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 6.6 5/6] ARM: 9434/1: cfi: Fix compilation corner case
Date: Wed, 20 Nov 2024 09:06:35 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20241120140647.1768984-5-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)

[ Upstream commit 4aea16b7cfb76bd3361858ceee6893ef5c9b5570 ]

When enabling expert mode CONFIG_EXPERT and using that power
user mode to disable the branch prediction hardening
!CONFIG_HARDEN_BRANCH_PREDICTOR, the assembly linker
in CLANG notices that some assembly in proc-v7.S does
not have corresponding C call sites, i.e. the prototypes
in proc-v7-bugs.c are enclosed in ifdef
CONFIG_HARDEN_BRANCH_PREDICTOR so this assembly:

SYM_TYPED_FUNC_START(cpu_v7_smc_switch_mm)
SYM_TYPED_FUNC_START(cpu_v7_hvc_switch_mm)

Results in:

ld.lld: error: undefined symbol: __kcfi_typeid_cpu_v7_smc_switch_mm
>>> referenced by proc-v7.S:94 (.../arch/arm/mm/proc-v7.S:94)
>>> arch/arm/mm/proc-v7.o:(.text+0x108) in archive vmlinux.a

ld.lld: error: undefined symbol: __kcfi_typeid_cpu_v7_hvc_switch_mm
>>> referenced by proc-v7.S:105 (.../arch/arm/mm/proc-v7.S:105)
>>> arch/arm/mm/proc-v7.o:(.text+0x124) in archive vmlinux.a

Fix this by adding an additional requirement that
CONFIG_HARDEN_BRANCH_PREDICTOR has to be enabled to compile
these assembly calls.
