Linux kernel source tree
78c4374ef8
Clang versions before 17 will not honour -fdirect-access-external-data for the load of the stack cookie emitted into each function's prologue and epilogue. This is not an issue for the core kernel, as the linker will relax these loads into LEA instructions that take the address of __stack_chk_guard directly. For modules, however, we need to work around this, by dealing with R_X86_64_REX_GOTPCRELX relocations that refer to __stack_chk_guard. In this case, given that this is a GOT load, the reference should not refer to __stack_chk_guard directly, but to a memory location that holds its address. So take the address of __stack_chk_guard into a static variable, and fix up the relocations to refer to that.

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 reStructuredText 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.
