Merge tag 'core-build-2020-10-12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull orphan section checking from Ingo Molnar: "Orphan link sections were a long-standing source of obscure bugs, because the heuristics that various linkers & compilers use to handle them (include these bits into the output image vs discarding them silently) are both highly idiosyncratic and also version dependent. Instead of this historically problematic mess, this tree by Kees Cook (et al) adds build time asserts and build time warnings if there's any orphan section in the kernel or if a section is not sized as expected. And because we relied on so many silent assumptions in this area, fix a metric ton of dependencies and some outright bugs related to this, before we can finally enable the checks on the x86, ARM and ARM64 platforms" * tag 'core-build-2020-10-12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (36 commits) x86/boot/compressed: Warn on orphan section placement x86/build: Warn on orphan section placement arm/boot: Warn on orphan section placement arm/build: Warn on orphan section placement arm64/build: Warn on orphan section placement x86/boot/compressed: Add missing debugging sections to output x86/boot/compressed: Remove, discard, or assert for unwanted sections x86/boot/compressed: Reorganize zero-size section asserts x86/build: Add asserts for unwanted sections x86/build: Enforce an empty .got.plt section x86/asm: Avoid generating unused kprobe sections arm/boot: Handle all sections explicitly arm/build: Assert for unwanted sections arm/build: Add missing sections arm/build: Explicitly keep .ARM.attributes sections arm/build: Refactor linker script headers arm64/build: Assert for unwanted sections arm64/build: Add missing DWARF sections arm64/build: Use common DISCARDS in linker script arm64/build: Remove .eh_frame* sections due to unwind tables ...
