commit67fc5dc8a5upstream. When generating vdso-o32.lds & vdso-n32.lds for use with programs running as compat ABIs under 64b kernels, we previously haven't included the compiler flags that are supposedly common to all ABIs - ie. those in the ccflags-vdso variable. This is problematic in cases where we need to provide the -m%-float flag in order to ensure that we don't attempt to use a floating point ABI that's incompatible with the target CPU & ABI. For example a toolchain using current gcc trunk configured --with-fp-32=xx fails to build a 64r6el_defconfig kernel with the following error: cc1: error: '-march=mips1' requires '-mfp32' make[2]: *** [arch/mips/vdso/Makefile:135: arch/mips/vdso/vdso-o32.lds] Error 1 Include $(ccflags-vdso) for the compat VDSO .lds builds, just as it is included for the native VDSO .lds & when compiling objects for the compat VDSOs. This ensures we consistently provide the -msoft-float flag amongst others, avoiding the problem by ensuring we're agnostic to the toolchain defaults.

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.
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.
