Linux kernel source tree
ca0f4fe7cf
A recent LLVM commit [1] started generating an .ARM.attributes section similar to the one that exists for 32-bit, which results in orphan section warnings (or errors if CONFIG_WERROR is enabled) from the linker because it is not handled in the arm64 linker scripts. ld.lld: error: arch/arm64/kernel/vdso/vgettimeofday.o:(.ARM.attributes) is being placed in '.ARM.attributes' ld.lld: error: arch/arm64/kernel/vdso/vgetrandom.o:(.ARM.attributes) is being placed in '.ARM.attributes' ld.lld: error: vmlinux.a(lib/vsprintf.o):(.ARM.attributes) is being placed in '.ARM.attributes' ld.lld: error: vmlinux.a(lib/win_minmax.o):(.ARM.attributes) is being placed in '.ARM.attributes' ld.lld: error: vmlinux.a(lib/xarray.o):(.ARM.attributes) is being placed in '.ARM.attributes' Discard the new sections in the necessary linker scripts to resolve the warnings, as the kernel and vDSO do not need to retain it, similar to the .note.gnu.property section.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
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.
