Linux kernel source tree
When attempting to boot a kernel compiled with OBJCOPY=llvm-objcopy,
there is a crash right at boot:
Out of memory allocating 6d7800 bytes 8 aligned in range 0:20000000
Reserved memory ranges:

GNU objcopy does not have any issues. Looking at differences between the
object files in each build reveals info.bin does not get properly
populated with llvm-objcopy, which results in an empty .vmlinux.info
section.
$ file {gnu,llvm}-objcopy/arch/s390/boot/info.bin

Ulrich points out that llvm-objcopy only copies sections marked as alloc
with a binary output target, whereas the .vmlinux.info section is only
marked as load. Add 'alloc' in addition to 'load', so that both objcopy
implementations work properly:

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.
