When CONFIG_LTO_CLANG=y, additional intermediate *.prelink.o is created for each module. Also, objtool is postponed until LLVM IR is converted to ELF. CONFIG_X86_KERNEL_IBT works in a similar way to postpone objtool until objects are merged together. This commit stops generating *.prelink.o, so the build flow will look similar with/without LTO. The following figures show how the LTO build currently works, and how this commit is changing it. Current build flow ================== [1] single-object module $(LD) $(CC) +objtool $(LD) foo.c --------------------> foo.o -----> foo.prelink.o -----> foo.ko (LLVM IR) (ELF) | (ELF) | foo.mod.o --/ (LLVM IR) [2] multi-object module $(LD) $(CC) $(AR) +objtool $(LD) foo1.c -----> foo1.o -----> foo.o -----> foo.prelink.o -----> foo.ko | (archive) (ELF) | (ELF) foo2.c -----> foo2.o --/ | (LLVM IR) foo.mod.o --/ (LLVM IR) One confusion is that foo.o in multi-object module is an archive despite of its suffix. New build flow ============== [1] single-object module Since there is only one object, there is no need to keep the LLVM IR. Use $(CC)+$(LD) to generate an ELF object in one build rule. When LTO is disabled, $(LD) is unneeded because $(CC) produces an ELF object. $(CC)+$(LD)+objtool $(LD) foo.c ----------------------------> foo.o ---------> foo.ko (ELF) | (ELF) | foo.mod.o --/ (LLVM IR) [2] multi-object module Previously, $(AR) was used to combine LLVM IR files into an archive, but there was no technical reason to do so. Use $(LD) to merge them into a single ELF object. $(LD) $(CC) +objtool $(LD) foo1.c ---------> foo1.o ---------> foo.o ---------> foo.ko | (ELF) | (ELF) foo2.c ---------> foo2.o ----/ | (LLVM IR) foo.mod.o --/ (LLVM IR) Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Nicolas Schier <nicolas@fjasle.eu> Tested-by: Nathan Chancellor <nathan@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Sami Tolvanen <samitolvanen@google.com> Tested-by: Sedat Dilek <sedat.dilek@gmail.com> # LLVM-14 (x86-64) Acked-by: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@kernel.org>
