With objtool enabled, below warnings are seen when trying to build: drivers/crypto/vmx/aesp8-ppc.o: warning: objtool: aes_p8_set_encrypt_key+0x44: unannotated intra-function call drivers/crypto/vmx/aesp8-ppc.o: warning: objtool: .text+0x2448: unannotated intra-function call drivers/crypto/vmx/aesp8-ppc.o: warning: objtool: .text+0x2d68: unannotated intra-function call Skip objtool from running on drivers/crypto/vmx/aesp8-ppc.o file for the following reasons: - Since this file comes from OpenSSL, and since it is a perl file which generates a .S file, it may not be the best choice to make too many code changes to such files, unless absolutely necessary. - As far as the objtool --mcount functionality is concerned, we do not have to run objtool on this file because there are no calls to _mcount().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
