JIRA: https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-28063 commit 56a24b8ce6a7f9c4a21b2276a8644f6f3d8fc14d Author: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> Date: Thu Jun 1 21:09:56 2023 +0900 modpost: fix section mismatch message for R_ARM_{PC24,CALL,JUMP24} addend_arm_rel() processes R_ARM_PC24, R_ARM_CALL, R_ARM_JUMP24 in a wrong way. Here, test code. [test code for R_ARM_JUMP24] .section .init.text,"ax" bar: bx lr .section .text,"ax" .globl foo foo: b bar [test code for R_ARM_CALL] .section .init.text,"ax" bar: bx lr .section .text,"ax" .globl foo foo: push {lr} bl bar pop {pc} If you compile it with ARM multi_v7_defconfig, modpost will show the symbol name, (unknown). WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o: section mismatch in reference: foo (section: .text) -> (unknown) (section: .init.text) (You need to use GNU linker instead of LLD to reproduce it.) Fix the code to make modpost show the correct symbol name. I imported (with adjustment) sign_extend32() from include/linux/bitops.h. The '+8' is the compensation for pc-relative instruction. It is documented in "ELF for the Arm Architecture" [1]. "If the relocation is pc-relative then compensation for the PC bias (the PC value is 8 bytes ahead of the executing instruction in Arm state and 4 bytes in Thumb state) must be encoded in the relocation by the object producer."

README
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 Restructured Text 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.
