I have a suspicion that these come from forcing on configs that Kconfig/menuconfig would block, and aren't clang or lld specific, yet are exposed by the new linker warnings for orphan section placement (good). That said, we definitely have OEMs in Android land that still prefer the older unwinder.

I can change it > to that if it is more proper though! We don't have LTO working on 32b ARM yet, so I'm not worried about -ffunction-sections for this (yet). The ld.bfd linker scripts didn't seem to use the non-wildcard and wildcard suggestion; just the wildcarded. (Maybe they have the same "bug?") I'm happy to revisit though if we plan to get LTO up and running on 32b ARM.

After turning on warnings for orphan section placement, enabling CONFIG_UNWINDER_FRAME_POINTER instead of CONFIG_UNWINDER_ARM causes thousands of warnings when clang + ld.lld are used: $ scripts/config --file arch/arm/configs/multi_v7_defconfig \ -d CONFIG_UNWINDER_ARM \ -e CONFIG_UNWINDER_FRAME_POINTER $ make -skj"$(nproc)" ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabi- LLVM=1 defconfig zImage ld.lld: warning: init/built-in.a(main.o):(.ARM.extab) is being placed in '.ARM.extab' ld.lld: warning: init/built-in.a(main.o):(.ARM.extab.init.text) is being placed in '.ARM.extab.init.text' ld.lld: warning: init/built-in.a(main.o):(.ARM.extab.ref.text) is being placed in '.ARM.extab.ref.text' ld.lld: warning: init/built-in.a(do_mounts.o):(.ARM.extab.init.text) is being placed in '.ARM.extab.init.text' ld.lld: warning: init/built-in.a(do_mounts.o):(.ARM.extab) is being placed in '.ARM.extab' ld.lld: warning: init/built-in.a(do_mounts_rd.o):(.ARM.extab.init.text) is being placed in '.ARM.extab.init.text' ld.lld: warning: init/built-in.a(do_mounts_rd.o):(.ARM.extab) is being placed in '.ARM.extab' ld.lld: warning: init/built-in.a(do_mounts_initrd.o):(.ARM.extab.init.text) is being placed in '.ARM.extab.init.text' ld.lld: warning: init/built-in.a(initramfs.o):(.ARM.extab.init.text) is being placed in '.ARM.extab.init.text' ld.lld: warning: init/built-in.a(initramfs.o):(.ARM.extab) is being placed in '.ARM.extab' ld.lld: warning: init/built-in.a(calibrate.o):(.ARM.extab.init.text) is being placed in '.ARM.extab.init.text' ld.lld: warning: init/built-in.a(calibrate.o):(.ARM.extab) is being placed in '.ARM.extab' These sections are handled by the ARM_UNWIND_SECTIONS define, which is only added to the list of sections when CONFIG_ARM_UNWIND is set. CONFIG_ARM_UNWIND is a hidden symbol that is only selected when CONFIG_UNWINDER_ARM is set so CONFIG_UNWINDER_FRAME_POINTER never handles these sections. According to the help text of CONFIG_UNWINDER_ARM, these sections should be discarded so that the kernel image size is not affected.
