[RFC][PATCH 4/5] objtool: Enable compilation of objtool for all architectures

From: Matt Helsley
Date: Mon May 11 2020 - 13:35:42 EST


objtool currently only compiles for x86 architectures. This is
fine as it presently does not support tooling for other
architectures. However, we would like to be able to convert other
kernel tools to run as objtool sub commands because they too
process ELF object files. This will allow us to convert tools
such as recordmcount to use objtool's ELF code.

Since much of recordmcount's ELF code is copy-paste code to/from
a variety of other kernel tools (look at modpost for example) this
means that if we can convert recordmcount we can convert more.

We define a "missing" architecture which contains weak definitions
for tools that do not exist on all architectures. In this case the
"check" and "orc" tools do not exist on all architectures.

To test building for other architectures ($arch below):

cd tools/objtool/arch
ln -s missing $arch
make O=build-$arch ARCH=$arch tools/objtool

This uses the weak, no-op definitions of the "check" and "orc"
commands for the newly-supported architecture. Presently these
exit with 127 to indicate that the subcommands are missing.
Subsequent patches can then be made to determine if the weak
definitions are used and explicitly report a missing command,
and even to list which subcommands are supported (perhaps if
no subcommand is specified it can list the supported subcommands).

objtool is not currently wired in to KConfig to be built for other
architectures because it's not needed for those architectures and
there are no commands it supports other than those for x86.

This commit allows us to demonstrate the pattern of adding
architecture support and isolates moving the various files from
adding support for more objtool subcommands.
