[PATCH 1/5] objtool: Fix CONFIG_UBSAN_TRAP unreachable warnings
From: Josh Poimboeuf
Date: Wed Apr 01 2020 - 14:23:43 EST
CONFIG_UBSAN_TRAP causes GCC to emit a UD2 whenever it encounters an
unreachable code path. This includes __builtin_unreachable(). Because
the BUG() macro uses __builtin_unreachable() after it emits its own UD2,
this results in a double UD2. In this case objtool rightfully detects
that the second UD2 is unreachable:
init/main.o: warning: objtool: repair_env_string()+0x1c8: unreachable instruction
We weren't able to figure out a way to get rid of the double UD2s, so
just silence the warning.
