Subject: Re: [PATCH v7 0/4] kexec: Fix kexec_file_load for llvm16 with PGO

We are seeing WARNINGs like the following while kexec'ing a PGO and
LTO enabled kernel:
WARNING: CPU: 26 PID: 110894 at kernel/kexec_file.c:919
kexec_load_purgatory+0x37f/0x390
AFAICT, the warning was added by this set, and it was triggered when
we have many .text sections
in purgatory.ro. The kexec was actually successful. So I wonder
whether we really need the
WARNING here. If we disable LTO (PGO is still enabled), we don't see
the WARNING any more.
I also tested an older kernel (5.19 based), where we also see many
.text sections with LTO. It
kexec()'ed fine. (It doesn't have the WARN_ON() in
kexec_purgatory_setup_sechdrs).
Please help us fix this properly (as I really don't know much about kexec).
Thanks in advance,
Song
Here is readelf -S output on purgatory.ro.
With LTO:
readelf -W -S purgatory.ro
