Is there a function attribute that we can use to say "please don't profile this one function?" For arch/x86/kernel/setup.o it looks like the same issue with __brk_reservation_fn_dmi_alloc__. More specifically, this warning goes away when using LLD: $ make CC=clang LD=ld.lld Not sure yet why these warnings are only observed when using BFD? Maybe LLD should also be producing this diagnostic, but is not? Anyways, I was able to build+boot profiling mode binaries built with: $ make LLVM=1 defconfig+PGO $ make LLVM=1 LLVM_IAS=1 defconfig+PGO It would be good to resolve/investigate the above error with BFD and fix it, or make this config also depend on LLD for now. ie. $ make CC=clang defconfig+PGO I'm going to try rebuilding+booting with the profile data now, and will report back. > + __llvm_prf_cnts : AT(ADDR(__llvm_prf_cnts) - LOAD_OFFSET) { \ > + . = ALIGN(8); \ > + __llvm_prf_cnts_start = .; \ > + KEEP(*(__llvm_prf_cnts)) \ > + . = ALIGN(8); \ > + __llvm_prf_cnts_end = .; \ > + } \ > + __llvm_prf_names : AT(ADDR(__llvm_prf_names) - LOAD_OFFSET) { \ > + . = ALIGN(8); \ > + __llvm_prf_names_start = .; \ > + KEEP(*(__llvm_prf_names)) \ > + . = ALIGN(8); \ > + __llvm_prf_names_end = .; \ > + . = ALIGN(8); \ > + } \ > + __llvm_prf_vals : AT(ADDR(__llvm_prf_vals) - LOAD_OFFSET) { \ > + __llvm_prf_vals_start = .; \ > + KEEP(*(__llvm_prf_vals)) \ > + . = ALIGN(8); \ > + __llvm_prf_vals_end = .; \ > + . = ALIGN(8); \ > + } \ > + __llvm_prf_vnds : AT(ADDR(__llvm_prf_vnds) - LOAD_OFFSET) { \ > + __llvm_prf_vnds_start = .; \ > + KEEP(*(__llvm_prf_vnds)) \ > + . = ALIGN(8); \ > + __llvm_prf_vnds_end = .; \ > + __llvm_prf_end = .; \ > + } > +#else > +#define PGO_CLANG_DATA > +#endif > + > #define KERNEL_DTB() \ > STRUCT_ALIGN(); \ > __dtb_start = .; \ > @@ -1125,6 +1168,7 @@ > CONSTRUCTORS \ > } \ > BUG_TABLE \ > + PGO_CLANG_DATA > > #define INIT_TEXT_SECTION(inittext_align) \ > . = ALIGN(inittext_align); \ > diff --git a/kernel/Makefile b/kernel/Makefile > index aa7368c7eabf3..0b34ca228ba46 100644 > --- a/kernel/Makefile > +++ b/kernel/Makefile > @@ -111,6 +111,7 @@ obj-$(CONFIG_BPF) += bpf/ > obj-$(CONFIG_KCSAN) += kcsan/ > obj-$(CONFIG_SHADOW_CALL_STACK) += scs.o > obj-$(CONFIG_HAVE_STATIC_CALL_INLINE) += static_call.o > +obj-$(CONFIG_PGO_CLANG) += pgo/ > > obj-$(CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS) += events/ > > diff --git a/kernel/pgo/Kconfig b/kernel/pgo/Kconfig > new file mode 100644 > index 0000000000000..318d36bb3d106 > --- /dev/null > +++ b/kernel/pgo/Kconfig > @@ -0,0 +1,34 @@ > +# SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0-only > +menu "Profile Guided Optimization (PGO) (EXPERIMENTAL)" > + > +config ARCH_SUPPORTS_PGO_CLANG > + bool > + > +config PGO_CLANG > + bool "Enable clang's PGO-based kernel profiling" > + depends on DEBUG_FS > + depends on ARCH_SUPPORTS_PGO_CLANG probably should additionally: depends on CLANG_VERSION >= 120000 I'm observing the same failed assertion as Nathan trying to build x86_64 defconfig (drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_query.c), that should be fixed by: https://reviews.llvm.org/D94470 I think that would also help prevent this config from being selectable if not using CC=clang? > + help > + This option enables clang's PGO (Profile Guided Optimization) based > + code profiling to better optimize the kernel. > + > + If unsure, say N. > + > + Run a representative workload for your application on a kernel > + compiled with this option and download the raw profile file from > + /sys/kernel/debug/pgo/profraw.
