Argh, using SYM_TYPED_FUNC_START() leads to objtool having more opinions.
I have the Clang build working in my tree now, but the GCC build now complains
vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: relocate_kernel+0x0: unreachable instruction
It seems like adding UNWIND_HINT_FUNC ought to be the answer for that?
But then it complains about this instead:
vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: relocate_kernel+0x69: unsupported stack register

That's the lea instruction at
lea PAGE_SIZE(%rsi), %rsp
79: 48 8d a6 00 10 00 00 lea 0x1000(%rsi),%rsp
I've pushed what I have to my kexec-debug branch; I was hoping to post
the fixes for the tip/x86/boot branch this morning but I've run out of
time and will be travelling for the rest of the week. Will try to get
something sent out this evening when I land.
I may resort to the __nocfi option for now. As noted on the typedef
patch and in IRC, the whole SYM_TYPED_FUNC_START() thing using the type
information from the *C* code which is actually doing the call anyway,
is a bit tautological anyway.
