commitebfac7b778upstream. clang-12 -fno-pic (sincea084c0388e) can emit `call __stack_chk_fail@PLT` instead of `call __stack_chk_fail` on x86. The two forms should have identical behaviors on x86-64 but the former causes GNU as<2.37 to produce an unreferenced undefined symbol _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_. (On x86-32, there is an R_386_PC32 vs R_386_PLT32 difference but the linker behavior is identical as far as Linux kernel is concerned.) Simply ignore _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ for now, like what scripts/mod/modpost.c:ignore_undef_symbol does. This also fixes the problem for gcc/clang -fpie and -fpic, which may emit `call foo@PLT` for external function calls on x86. Note: ld -z defs and dynamic loaders do not error for unreferenced undefined symbols so the module loader is reading too much. If we ever need to ignore more symbols, the code should be refactored to ignore unreferenced symbols.

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.
