When GCC adds NOP padding between functions, those NOPs aren't associated with a function symbol, which breaks objtool's detection of a function falling through to another function. Instead it shows confusing errors like: drivers/mtd/chips/cfi_util.o: warning: objtool: cfi_qry_mode_on()+0x8b: return with modified stack frame drivers/mtd/chips/cfi_util.o: warning: objtool: cfi_qry_mode_on()+0x0: stack state mismatch: cfa1=-4-32 cfa2=7+8 drivers/mtd/chips/cfi_cmdset_0002.o: warning: objtool: fixup_use_fwh_lock()+0x8: unknown stack-related register move drivers/mtd/chips/cfi_cmdset_0002.o: warning: objtool: fixup_use_fwh_lock()+0x0: stack state mismatch: cfa1=6+16 cfa2=7+8 drivers/mtd/chips/cfi_cmdset_0002.o: warning: objtool: do_otp_write()+0xa: unsupported stack pointer realignment drivers/mtd/chips/cfi_cmdset_0002.o: warning: objtool: do_otp_write()+0x0: stack state mismatch: cfa1=-4-40 cfa2=7+8 Reported-by: kbuild test robot <fengguang.wu@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@redhat.com> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/43e7aae9a7a7710cd6df597fa9dc501da4ba0602.1502472193.git.jpoimboe@redhat.com Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
