Nathan Chancellor 68a3cbc446 s390/vdso: Use $(LD) instead of $(CC) to link vDSO
[ Upstream commit 2b2a25845d534ac6d55086e35c033961fdd83a26 ]

Currently, the VDSO is being linked through $(CC). This does not match
how the rest of the kernel links objects, which is through the $(LD)
variable.

When clang is built in a default configuration, it first attempts to use
the target triple's default linker, which is just ld. However, the user
can override this through the CLANG_DEFAULT_LINKER cmake define so that
clang uses another linker by default, such as LLVM's own linker, ld.lld.
This can be useful to get more optimized links across various different
projects.

However, this is problematic for the s390 vDSO because ld.lld does not
have any s390 emulatiom support:

https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/llvmorg-10.0.1-rc1/lld/ELF/Driver.cpp#L132-L150

Thus, if a user is using a toolchain with ld.lld as the default, they
will see an error, even if they have specified ld.bfd through the LD
make variable:

$ make -j"$(nproc)" -s ARCH=s390 CROSS_COMPILE=s390x-linux-gnu- LLVM=1 \
                       LD=s390x-linux-gnu-ld \
                       defconfig arch/s390/kernel/vdso64/
ld.lld: error: unknown emulation: elf64_s390
clang-11: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

Normally, '-fuse-ld=bfd' could be used to get around this; however, this
can be fragile, depending on paths and variable naming. The cleaner
solution for the kernel is to take advantage of the fact that $(LD) can
be invoked directly, which bypasses the heuristics of $(CC) and respects
the user's choice. Similar changes have been done for ARM, ARM64, and
MIPS.

README

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.
