Description Nikita Popov 2023-07-06 10:50:52 UTC

This bug was initially created as a copy of Bug #2216662

I am copying this bug because: This also affects RHEL 9.3, which also has Clang 16 using Binutils 2.40 via gcc-toolset-13. The Clang update is currently failing the qemu rebuild validation gating test due to this issue.

I believe a backport of https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/commit/7cd50cbe4ca3e2860b31b06ec92c17c54bd82d48 for RHEL 9 would fix this.

-----

When trying to build qemu-kvm package for ELN, build for s390x is failing with following error:

/usr/bin/ld: warning: start.o: missing .note.GNU-stack section implies executable stack
/usr/bin/ld: NOTE: This behaviour is deprecated and will be removed in a future version of the linker
/usr/bin/ld: start.o(.text+0x8): misaligned symbol `__bss_start' (0xc1e5) for relocation R_390_PC32DBL
clang-16: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
make[1]: *** [Makefile:61: s390-ccw.elf] Error 1

This problem is happening with rawhide version (binutils-2.40-9.fc39, clang-16.0.5-3.fc39). When using F38 version (binutils-2.39-9.fc39, clang-16.0.5-1.fc38), build is successful. In addition, build is successful using gcc too (both rawhide and f38).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Prepare srpm from CentOS 9 stream qemu-kvm (https://gitlab.com/redhat/centos-stream/rpms/qemu-kvm)

2. Try to build this srpm
Actual Results:  
Build is failing on s930-ccw rom image build.

Expected Results:  
Build pass
