[PATCH 3.10 103/143] compiler-gcc: disable -ftracer for __noclone functions

From: Willy Tarreau
Date: Sun Jun 05 2016 - 06:30:05 EST


From: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 95272c29378ee7dc15f43fa2758cb28a5913a06d upstream.

-ftracer can duplicate asm blocks causing compilation to fail in
noclone functions. For example, KVM declares a global variable
in an asm like

asm("2: ... \n
.pushsection data \n
.global vmx_return \n
vmx_return: .long 2b");

and -ftracer causes a double declaration.
