Subject: [PATCH 5.4 29/36] kbuild: avoid static_assert for genksyms
Date: Mon, 14 Dec 2020 18:28:13 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201214172544.733028722@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20201214172543.302523401@linuxfoundation.org>
From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
commit 14dc3983b5dff513a90bd5a8cc90acaf7867c3d0 upstream.
genksyms does not know or care about the _Static_assert() built-in, and
sometimes falls back to ignoring the later symbols, which causes
undefined behavior such as
WARNING: modpost: EXPORT symbol "ethtool_set_ethtool_phy_ops" [vmlinux] version generation failed, symbol will not be versioned.
ld: net/ethtool/common.o: relocation R_AARCH64_ABS32 against `__crc_ethtool_set_ethtool_phy_ops' can not be used when making a shared object
net/ethtool/common.o:(_ftrace_annotated_branch+0x0): dangerous relocation: unsupported relocation
Redefine static_assert for genksyms to avoid that.
