objtool: Support Clang RAX DRAP sequence

2026-03-18T08:38:52+00:00

Recent Clang can use RAX as a temporary register for the DRAP stack alignment sequence. Add support for that. Fixes the following warning: vmlinux.o: error: objtool: vmw_host_printf+0xd: unknown CFA base reg 0 Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/cefefdd1-7b82-406d-8ff4-e4b167e45ee6@app.fastmail.com Reported-by: Arnd Bergmann Signed-off-by: Josh Poimboeuf Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) Link: https://patch.msgid.link/3f33dc720b83dc6d3a2b7094f75a5c90a0b1cbc5.1773708458.git.jpoimboe@kernel.org

objtool: Change "warning:" to "error: " for fatal errors

2025-04-01T07:07:13+00:00

This is similar to GCC's behavior and makes it more obvious why the build failed. Signed-off-by: Josh Poimboeuf Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar Cc: Linus Torvalds Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/0ea76f4b0e7a370711ed9f75fd0792bb5979c2bf.1743481539.git.jpoimboe@kernel.org

objtool/x86: Separate arch-specific and generic parts

2024-03-11T14:23:47+00:00

Move init_orc_entry(), write_orc_entry(), reg_name(), orc_type_name() and print_reg() from generic orc_gen.c and orc_dump.c to arch-specific orc.c, then introduce a new function orc_print_dump() to print info. This is preparation for later patch, no functionality change.
