Subject[PATCH] kbuild: Always link with '-z norelro'
Date
Commit 3bbd3db86470 ("arm64: relocatable: fix inconsistencies in linker
script and options") added '-z norelro' to the arm64 Makefile when
CONFIG_RELOCATABLE was set to help support ld.lld because ld.lld
defaults to '-z relro' but the kernel does not use program headers or
adhere to the section layout that is required for RELRO to work.

Commit 3b92fa7485eb ("arm64: link with -z norelro regardless of
CONFIG_RELOCATABLE") unconditionally added it to LDFLAGS_vmlinux because
an error occurs with CONFIG_KASAN set even when CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is
unset.

As it turns out, ARM experiences the same error after CONFIG_KASAN was
implemented, meaning that '-z norelro' needs to be added to that
Makefile as well (multi_v7_defconfig + CONFIG_KASAN=y + LD=ld.lld):

$ make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabi- LLVM=1 zImage
ld.lld: error: section: .exit.data is not contiguous with other relro sections

To avoid playing whack-a-mole with different architectures over time,
hoist '-z norelro' into the main Makefile. This does not affect ld.bfd
because '-z norelro' is the default for it.

Hi all,

This should probably go into Russell's tree with acks from the arm64 and
kbuild maintainers.

Cheers,
Nathan
