UBSAN=y fails to build with new GCC/clang:
arch/x86/kernel/head64.o: In function `sanitize_boot_params':
arch/x86/include/asm/bootparam_utils.h:37: undefined reference to `__ubsan_handle_type_mismatch_v1'
because Clang and GCC 8 slightly changed ABI for 'type mismatch' errors.
Compiler now uses new __ubsan_handle_type_mismatch_v1() function with
slightly modified 'struct type_mismatch_data'.
Let's add new 'struct type_mismatch_data_common' which is independent from
compiler's layout of 'struct type_mismatch_data'. And make
__ubsan_handle_type_mismatch[_v1]() functions transform compiler-dependent
type mismatch data to our internal representation. This way, we can
support both old and new compilers with minimal amount of change.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
