From f7a53d32cc604da6c1367414d47ad4f78c99dc82 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Palmer Dabbelt Date: Wed, 26 Mar 2025 15:45:07 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] RISC-V: errata: Use medany for relocatable builds [ Upstream commit bb58e1579f431d42469b6aed0f03eff383ba6db5 ] We're trying to mix non-PIC/PIE objects into the otherwise-PIE relocatable kernels, to avoid GOT/PLT references during early boot alternative resolution (which happens before the GOT/PLT are set up). riscv64-unknown-linux-gnu-ld: arch/riscv/errata/sifive/errata.o: relocation R_RISCV_HI20 against `tlb_flush_all_threshold' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC riscv64-unknown-linux-gnu-ld: arch/riscv/errata/thead/errata.o: relocation R_RISCV_HI20 against `riscv_cbom_block_size' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC Fixes: 8dc2a7e8027f ("riscv: Fix relocatable kernels with early alternatives using -fno-pie") Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250326224506.27165-2-palmer@rivosinc.com Signed-off-by: Palmer Dabbelt Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin --- arch/riscv/errata/Makefile | 6 +++++- 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/arch/riscv/errata/Makefile b/arch/riscv/errata/Makefile index 8a2739485123..f96ace8ea1df 100644 --- a/arch/riscv/errata/Makefile +++ b/arch/riscv/errata/Makefile @@ -1,5 +1,9 @@ ifdef CONFIG_RELOCATABLE -KBUILD_CFLAGS += -fno-pie +# We can't use PIC/PIE when handling early-boot errata parsing, as the kernel +# doesn't have a GOT setup at that point.
