Observing build warnings with linux-next and powerpc repo's. Issue is currently not seen on mainline yet.

next Kernel Version: 6.14.0-rc5-next-20250303


On linux-next kernel issue got introduced b/w next-20250227 and next-20250303


Build Warnings:

arch/powerpc/kvm/book3s_hv_rmhandlers.o: warning: objtool: .text+0xe84: intra_function_call not a direct call arch/powerpc/crypto/ghashp8-ppc.o: warning: objtool: .text+0x22c: unannotated intra-function call arch/powerpc/kernel/switch.o: warning: objtool: .text+0x4: intra_function_call not a direct call


Can you please specific the compiler and compiler version you found this issue with

Can you also tell which defconfig you are using or provide your .config

It might also be helpfull if you can provide a disassembly of the three file.o around the warned address.
I could recreate the issue with gcc 11.4.1 20231218 with today's linux-next (but could not recreate with gcc 14 or gcc 11.3.0)

(20d5c66e1810 (HEAD -> master, tag: next-20250304, origin/master, origin/HEAD) Add linux-next specific files for 20250304)

warning for one of the switch.S file :

arch/powerpc/kernel/switch.o: warning: objtool: .text+0x4: intra_function_call not a direct call
I guess this is becos, for bl .+4, we recently added in the arch_decode_instruction (decode.c) to set the type as INSN_OTHER

         case 18: /* b[l][a] */
                 if (ins == 0x48000005)  /* bl .+4 */
                         typ = INSN_OTHER;

Which I think is the issue here, changing it to INSN_CALL from INSN_OTHER fixes the warning

Maddy,

I changed the code manually and gave it a try. The Proposed fix,
partially fixes the issue. It gets rid of two of the warnings, but below
warning still persists.

It fixes the issue for you but will reintroduce the issue with clang.

The real fix is to remove the ANNOTATE_INTRA_FUNCTION_CALL in:

arch/powerpc/kernel/switch.S:42: ANNOTATE_INTRA_FUNCTION_CALL
arch/powerpc/kvm/book3s_hv_rmhandlers.S:1527: ANNOTATE_INTRA_FUNCTION_CALL arch/powerpc/kvm/book3s_hv_rmhandlers.S:1534: ANNOTATE_INTRA_FUNCTION_CALL


Removed ANNOTATE_INTRA_FUNCTION_CALL in above mentioned line, and it fixes couple of warnings. But below warning still persists.

arch/powerpc/crypto/ghashp8-ppc.o: warning: objtool: .text+0x22c: unannotated intra-function call.


Can you give it a try ?

For the last one, can you provide an assembly dump ? You get it with "objtool -dr arch/powerpc/crypto/ghashp8-ppc.o"


Assembly dump:

objdump -dr arch/powerpc/crypto/ghashp8-ppc.o

This is raw data that is after the function end and that shouldn't be taken into account as text by objtool. But ghashp8-ppc.S is generated by a perl script and should have been marked as OBJECT_FILES_NON_STANDARD.

For some reason, commit 109303336a0c ("crypto: vmx - Move to arch/powerpc/crypto") missed it. So now that 'bla' is understood as a call instruction, we hit the problem.

Can you try with following fix:
