Kees Cook add3a49ae9 selftests/exec: Build both static and non-static load_address tests
[ Upstream commit b57a2907c9d96c56494ef25f8ec821cd0b355dd6 ]

After commit 4d1cd3b2c5 ("tools/testing/selftests/exec: fix link
error"), the load address alignment tests tried to build statically.
This was silently ignored in some cases. However, after attempting to
further fix the build by switching to "-static-pie", the test started
failing. This appears to be due to non-PT_INTERP ET_DYN execs ("static
PIE") not doing alignment correctly, which remains unfixed[1]. See commit
aeb7923733 ("revert "fs/binfmt_elf: use PT_LOAD p_align values for
static PIE"") for more details.

Provide rules to build both static and non-static PIE binaries, improve
debug reporting, and perform several test steps instead of a single
all-or-nothing test. However, do not actually enable static-pie tests;
alignment specification is only supported for ET_DYN with PT_INTERP
("regular PIE").

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.
