Subject: [PATCH 5.4 09/21] avoid __memcat_p link failure
Date: Wed, 5 May 2021 14:04:23 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210505112325.030497699@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210505112324.729798712@linuxfoundation.org>
From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
The kernel test robot reports a link error when the stm driver is a
loadable module on any v5.4 kernel:
> ERROR: "__memcat_p" [drivers/hwtracing/stm/stm_core.ko] undefined!
This was fixed in mainline with commit 7273ad2b08f8 ("kbuild: link
lib-y objects to vmlinux forcibly when CONFIG_MODULES=y"), which
is fairly intrusive.
Fix the v5.4 specific issue with a minimal subset of that patch,
linking only the failing object into the kernel. Kernels before v4.20
are not affected.
