From 936599ca514973d44a766b7376c6bbdc96b6a8cc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Weißschuh Date: Mon, 28 Jul 2025 15:47:37 +0200 Subject: kbuild: userprogs: use correct linker when mixing clang and GNU ld The userprogs infrastructure does not expect clang being used with GNU ld and in that case uses /usr/bin/ld for linking, not the configured $(LD). This fallback is problematic as it will break when cross-compiling. Mixing clang and GNU ld is used for example when building for SPARC64, as ld.lld is not sufficient; see Documentation/kbuild/llvm.rst. Relax the check around --ld-path so it gets used for all linkers.

This causes the script to fail to work on systems where `tar` is not GNU tar. This can occur e.g. on recent Gentoo Linux installations that support using bsdtar from libarchive instead. Add a `TAR` make variable to make it possible to override the tar executable used, e.g. by specifying: make TAR=gtar Link: https://bugs.gentoo.org/884061 Reported-by: Sam James Tested-by: Sam James Co-developed-by: Masahiro Yamada Signed-off-by: Michał Górny Signed-off-by: Sam James Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada --- Makefile | 3 ++- kernel/gen_kheaders.sh | 6 +++--- 2 files changed, 5 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) (limited to 'Makefile') diff --git a/Makefile b/Makefile index f4009f7238c7..6bc19b23d28d 100644 --- a/Makefile +++ b/Makefile @@ -543,6 +543,7 @@ LZMA = lzma LZ4 = lz4 XZ = xz ZSTD = zstd +TAR = tar CHECKFLAGS := -D__linux__ -Dlinux -D__STDC__ -Dunix -D__unix__ \ -Wbitwise -Wno-return-void -Wno-unknown-attribute $(CF) @@ -622,7 +623,7 @@ export RUSTC RUSTDOC RUSTFMT RUSTC_OR_CLIPPY_QUIET RUSTC_OR_CLIPPY BINDGEN export HOSTRUSTC KBUILD_HOSTRUSTFLAGS export CPP AR NM STRIP OBJCOPY OBJDUMP READELF PAHOLE RESOLVE_BTFIDS LEX YACC AWK INSTALLKERNEL export PERL PYTHON3 CHECK CHECKFLAGS MAKE UTS_MACHINE HOSTCXX -export KGZIP KBZIP2 KLZOP LZMA LZ4 XZ ZSTD +export KGZIP KBZIP2 KLZOP LZMA LZ4 XZ ZSTD TAR export KBUILD_HOSTCXXFLAGS KBUILD_HOSTLDFLAGS KBUILD_HOSTLDLIBS KBUILD_PROCMACROLDFLAGS LDFLAGS_MODULE export KBUILD_USERCFLAGS KBUILD_USERLDFLAGS diff --git a/kernel/gen_kheaders.sh b/kernel/gen_kheaders.sh index c64e5a00a3d9..896a503dfb29 100755 --- a/kernel/gen_kheaders.sh +++ b/kernel/gen_kheaders.sh @@ -30,8 +30,8 @@ rm -rf "${tmpdir}" mkdir "${tmpdir}" # shellcheck disable=SC2154 # srctree is passed as an env variable -sed "s:^${srctree}/::" "${srclist}" | tar -c -f - -C "${srctree}" -T - | tar -xf - -C "${tmpdir}" -tar -c -f - -T "${objlist}" | tar -xf - -C "${tmpdir}" +sed "s:^${srctree}/::" "${srclist}" | ${TAR} -c -f - -C "${srctree}" -T - | ${TAR} -xf - -C "${tmpdir}" +${TAR} -c -f - -T "${objlist}" | ${TAR} -xf - -C "${tmpdir}" # Remove comments except SDPX lines # Use a temporary file to store directory contents to prevent find/xargs from @@ -43,7 +43,7 @@ xargs -0 -P8 -n1 \ rm -f "${tmpdir}.contents.txt" # Create archive and try to normalize metadata for reproducibility. -tar "${timestamp:+--mtime=$timestamp}" \ +${TAR} "${timestamp:+--mtime=$timestamp}" \ --owner=0 --group=0 --sort=name --numeric-owner --mode=u=rw,go=r,a+X \ -I "${XZ}" -cf "${tarfile}" -C "${tmpdir}/" . > /dev/null -- cgit v1.2.3
