commit334865b291upstream. Bernardo reported an error that Nathan bisected down to (x86_64) defconfig+LTO_CLANG_FULL+X86_PMEM_LEGACY. LTO vmlinux.o ld.lld: error: <instantiation>:1:13: redefinition of 'found' .set found, 0 ^ <inline asm>:29:1: while in macro instantiation extable_type_reg reg=%eax, type=(17 | ((0) << 16)) ^ This appears to be another LTO specific issue similar to what was folded into commit4b5305decc("x86/extable: Extend extable functionality"), where the `.set found, 0` in DEFINE_EXTABLE_TYPE_REG in arch/x86/include/asm/asm.h conflicts with the symbol for the static function `found` in arch/x86/kernel/pmem.c. Assembler .set directive declare symbols with global visibility, so the assembler may not rename such symbols in the event of a conflict. LTO could rename static functions if there was a conflict in C sources, but it cannot see into symbols defined in inline asm. The symbols are also retained in the symbol table, regardless of LTO. Give the symbols .L prefixes making them locally visible, so that they may be renamed for LTO to avoid conflicts, and to drop them from the symbol table regardless of LTO.

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.
