Subject: [PATCH] x86,bpf: Avoid IBT objtool warning
Date: Tue, 5 Apr 2022 09:55:31 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220405075531.GB30877@worktop.programming.kicks-ass.net> (raw)


Clang can inline emit_indirect_jump() and then folds constants, which
results in:

  | vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: emit_bpf_dispatcher()+0x6a4: relocation to !ENDBR: .text.__x86.indirect_thunk+0x40
  | vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: emit_bpf_dispatcher()+0x67d: relocation to !ENDBR: .text.__x86.indirect_thunk+0x40
  | vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: emit_bpf_tail_call_indirect()+0x386: relocation to !ENDBR: .text.__x86.indirect_thunk+0x20
  | vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: emit_bpf_tail_call_indirect()+0x35d: relocation to !ENDBR: .text.__x86.indirect_thunk+0x20

Suppress the optimization such that it must emit a code reference to
the __x86_indirect_thunk_array[] base.
