Currently, the VDSO is being linked through $(CC). This does not match how the rest of the kernel links objects, which is through the $(LD) variable. When linking with clang, there are a couple of warnings about flags that will not be used during the link: clang-12: warning: argument unused during compilation: '-no-pie' [-Wunused-command-line-argument] clang-12: warning: argument unused during compilation: '-pg' [-Wunused-command-line-argument] '-no-pie' was added in commit85602bea29("RISC-V: build vdso-dummy.o with -no-pie") to override '-pie' getting added to the ld command from distribution versions of GCC that enable PIE by default. It is technically no longer needed after commitc2c81bb2f6("RISC-V: Fix the VDSO symbol generaton for binutils-2.35+"), which removed vdso-dummy.o in favor of generating vdso-syms.S from vdso.so with $(NM) but this also resolves the issue in case it ever comes back due to having full control over the $(LD) command. '-pg' is for function tracing, it is not used during linking as clang states. These flags could be removed/filtered to fix the warnings but it is easier to just match the rest of the kernel and use $(LD) directly for linking. See commitsfe00e50b2d("ARM: 8858/1: vdso: use $(LD) instead of $(CC) to link VDSO")691efbedc6("arm64: vdso: use $(LD) instead of $(CC) to link VDSO")2ff906994b("MIPS: VDSO: Use $(LD) instead of $(CC) to link VDSO")2b2a25845d("s390/vdso: Use $(LD) instead of $(CC) to link vDSO") for more information. The flags are converted to linker flags and '--eh-frame-hdr' is added to match what is added by GCC implicitly, which can be seen by adding '-v' to GCC's invocation. Additionally, since this area is being modified, use the $(OBJCOPY) variable instead of an open coded $(CROSS_COMPILE)objcopy so that the user's choice of objcopy binary is respected.

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.
