[PATCH] gcc-plugins: Disable GCC plugins for compile test builds

From: Mark Brown
Date: Mon Apr 07 2025 - 17:12:52 EST


In current mainline x86_64 allmodconfig builds done with tuxmake GCC 13
and GCC 14 toolchains (which are Debian ones packaged up into containers)
generate ICEs in landlock:

Event | Plugins
PLUGIN_FINISH_TYPE | randomize_layout_plugin
PLUGIN_FINISH_DECL | randomize_layout_plugin
PLUGIN_ATTRIBUTES | latent_entropy_plugin randomize_layout_plugin
PLUGIN_START_UNIT | latent_entropy_plugin stackleak_plugin
PLUGIN_ALL_IPA_PASSES_START | randomize_layout_plugin
/build/stage/linux/security/landlock/fs.c: In function ‘hook_file_ioctl_common’:
/build/stage/linux/security/landlock/fs.c:1745:61: internal compiler error: in c
ount_type_elements, at expr.cc:7075
1745 | .u.op = &(struct lsm_ioctlop_audit) {
| ^

Arnd bisected this to c56f649646ec ("landlock: Log mount-related
denials") but that commit is fairly obviously not really at fault here,
most likely this is an issue in the plugin. Given how disruptive having
key configs like this failing let's disable the plugins for compile test
builds until a fix is found.
