[ Upstream commit ee9d21b3b3 ]
When building with clang crt0's _zimage_start is not marked weak, which
breaks the build when linking the kernel image:
$ objdump -t arch/powerpc/boot/crt0.o |grep _zimage_start$
0000000000000058 g .text 0000000000000000 _zimage_start
ld: arch/powerpc/boot/wrapper.a(crt0.o): in function '_zimage_start':
(.text+0x58): multiple definition of '_zimage_start';
arch/powerpc/boot/pseries-head.o:(.text+0x0): first defined here
Clang requires the .weak directive to appear after the symbol is
declared. The binutils manual says:
This directive sets the weak attribute on the comma separated list of
symbol names. If the symbols do not already exist, they will be
created.
So it appears this is different with clang. The only reference I could
see for this was an OpenBSD mailing list post[1].
Changing it to be after the declaration fixes building with Clang, and
still works with GCC.
$ objdump -t arch/powerpc/boot/crt0.o |grep _zimage_start$
0000000000000058 w .text 0000000000000000 _zimage_start

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
