When using a toolchain with gold as the default linker, the VDSO build fails: VDSO arch/arm/vdso/vdso.so.raw HOSTCC arch/arm/vdso/vdsomunge MUNGE arch/arm/vdso/vdso.so.dbg OBJCOPY arch/arm/vdso/vdso.so BFD: arch/arm/vdso/vdso.so: Not enough room for program headers, try linking with -N For whatever reason, ld.gold is omitting an exidx program header that ld.bfd emits, and even when I work around that, I don't get a working VDSO. For now, instead of supporting gold (which will fail to link the kernel anyway since it does not implement --pic-veneer), direct the compiler to use the traditional bfd linker. This is accomplished by using -fuse-ld, which is implemented in GCC 4.8 and later. Note: one limitation of this is that if the toolchain is configured to use gold by default, and the bfd linker is not in $PATH, the VDSO build will fail: VDSO arch/arm/vdso/vdso.so.raw collect2: fatal error: cannot find 'ld' This will happen if CROSS_COMPILE begins with a path such as /opt/bin/arm-linux-gnu- but /opt/bin is not in $PATH. This is considered an acceptable corner-case limitation and is easily worked around. Additonal note: we use cc-option instead of cc-ldoption so that -fuse-ld=bfd is placed in the command line if the compiler recognizes the option. Using cc-ldoption results in an attempt to link, which fails in the situation just described, causing -fuse-ld=bfd to be omitted and gold to be used for the VDSO link, which is what we're trying to prevent.
