From: Andy Lutomirski luto@kernel.org Date: Thu, 16 Aug 2018 12:41:15 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] x86/vdso: Fix vDSO build if a retpoline is emitted
Currently, if the vDSO ends up containing an indirect branch or call, GCC will emit the "external thunk" style of retpoline, and it will fail to link.
Fix it by building the vDSO with inline retpoline thunks.
I haven't seen any reports of this triggering on an unpatched kernel.
