The assembly code in head_{32,64}.S, while meant to be position-independent, generates run-time relocations because it uses instructions such as: leal gdt(%edx), %eax which make the assembler and linker think that the code is using %edx as an index into gdt, and hence gdt needs to be relocated to its run-time address. On 32-bit, with lld Dmitry Golovin reports that this results in a link-time error with default options (i.e. unless -z notext is explicitly passed): LD arch/x86/boot/compressed/vmlinux ld.lld: error: can't create dynamic relocation R_386_32 against local symbol in readonly segment; recompile object files with -fPIC or pass '-Wl,-z,notext' to allow text relocations in the output With the BFD linker, this generates a warning during the build, if --warn-shared-textrel is enabled, which at least Gentoo enables by default: LD arch/x86/boot/compressed/vmlinux ld: arch/x86/boot/compressed/head_32.o: warning: relocation in read-only section `.head.text' ld: warning: creating a DT_TEXTREL in object On 64-bit, it is not possible to link the kernel as -pie with lld, and it is only possible with a BFD linker that supports -z noreloc-overflow, i.e. versions >2.26. This is because these instructions cannot really be relocated: the displacement field is only 32-bits wide, and thus cannot be relocated for a 64-bit load address. The -z noreloc-overflow option simply overrides the linker error, and results in R_X86_64_RELATIVE relocations that apply a 64-bit relocation to a 32-bit field anyway. This happens to work because nothing will process these run-time relocations. Start fixing this by removing relocations from .head.text: - On 32-bit, use a base register that holds the address of the GOT and reference symbol addresses using @GOTOFF, i.e. leal gdt@GOTOFF(%edx), %eax - On 64-bit, most of the code can (and already does) use %rip-relative addressing, however the .code32 bits can't, and the 64-bit code also needs to reference symbol addresses as they will be after moving the compressed kernel to the end of the decompression buffer. For these cases, reference the symbols as an offset to startup_32 to avoid creating relocations, i.e.: leal (gdt-startup_32)(%bp), %eax This only works in .head.text as the subtraction cannot be represented as a PC-relative relocation unless startup_32 is in the same section as the code. Move efi32_pe_entry into .head.text so that it can use the same method to avoid relocations.
