commit 09e43968db40c33a73e9ddbfd937f46d5c334924 upstream. The x86-64 psABI [0] specifies special relocation types (R_X86_64_[REX_]GOTPCRELX) for indirection through the Global Offset Table, semantically equivalent to R_X86_64_GOTPCREL, which the linker can take advantage of for optimization (relaxation) at link time. This is supported by LLD and binutils versions 2.26 onwards. The compressed kernel is position-independent code, however, when using LLD or binutils versions before 2.27, it must be linked without the -pie option. In this case, the linker may optimize certain instructions into a non-position-independent form, by converting foo@GOTPCREL(%rip) to $foo. This potential issue has been present with LLD and binutils-2.26 for a long time, but it has never manifested itself before now: - LLD and binutils-2.26 only relax movq foo@GOTPCREL(%rip), %reg to leaq foo(%rip), %reg which is still position-independent, rather than mov $foo, %reg which is permitted by the psABI when -pie is not enabled. - GCC happens to only generate GOTPCREL relocations on mov instructions. - CLang does generate GOTPCREL relocations on non-mov instructions, but when building the compressed kernel, it uses its integrated assembler (due to the redefinition of KBUILD_CFLAGS dropping -no-integrated-as), which has so far defaulted to not generating the GOTPCRELX relocations. Nick Desaulniers reports [1,2]: "A recent change [3] to a default value of configuration variable (ENABLE_X86_RELAX_RELOCATIONS OFF -> ON) in LLVM now causes Clang's integrated assembler to emit R_X86_64_GOTPCRELX/R_X86_64_REX_GOTPCRELX relocations. LLD will relax instructions with these relocations based on whether the image is being linked as position independent or not. When not, then LLD will relax these instructions to use absolute addressing mode (R_RELAX_GOT_PC_NOPIC). This causes kernels built with Clang and linked with LLD to fail to boot." Patch series [4] is a solution to allow the compressed kernel to be linked with -pie unconditionally, but even if merged is unlikely to be backported. As a simple solution that can be applied to stable as well, prevent the assembler from generating the relaxed relocation types using the -mrelax-relocations=no option. For ease of backporting, do this unconditionally.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
