Linux kernel source tree
When building with OBJDUMP=llvm-objdump, there are a series of warnings from the section comparisons that arch/s390/boot/Makefile performs between vmlinux and arch/s390/boot/vmlinux: llvm-objdump: warning: section '.boot.preserved.data' mentioned in a -j/--section option, but not found in any input file llvm-objdump: warning: section '.boot.data' mentioned in a -j/--section option, but not found in any input file llvm-objdump: warning: section '.boot.preserved.data' mentioned in a -j/--section option, but not found in any input file llvm-objdump: warning: section '.boot.data' mentioned in a -j/--section option, but not found in any input file The warning is a little misleading, as these sections do exist in the input files. It is really pointing out that llvm-objdump does not match GNU objdump's behavior of respecting '-j' / '--section' in combination with '-t' / '--syms': $ s390x-linux-gnu-objdump -t -j .boot.data vmlinux.full vmlinux.full: file format elf64-s390 SYMBOL TABLE: 0000000001951000 l O .boot.data 0000000000003000 sclp_info_sccb 00000000019550e0 l O .boot.data 0000000000000001 sclp_info_sccb_valid 00000000019550e2 g O .boot.data 0000000000001000 early_command_line ... $ llvm-objdump -t -j .boot.data vmlinux.full vmlinux.full: file format elf64-s390 SYMBOL TABLE: 0000000000100040 l O .text 0000000000000010 dw_psw 0000000000000000 l df *ABS* 0000000000000000 main.c 00000000001001b0 l F .text 00000000000000c6 trace_event_raw_event_initcall_level 0000000000100280 l F .text 0000000000000100 perf_trace_initcall_level ... It may be possible to change llvm-objdump's behavior to match GNU objdump's behavior but the difficulty of that task has not yet been explored. The combination of '$(OBJDUMP) -t -j' is not common in the kernel tree on a whole, so workaround this tool difference by grepping for the sections in the full symbol table output in a similar manner to the sed invocation. This results in no visible change for GNU objdump users while fixing the warnings for OBJDUMP=llvm-objdump, further enabling use of LLVM=1 for ARCH=s390 with versions of LLVM that have support for s390 in ld.lld and llvm-objcopy.

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.
