Subject: build: Fix build error with binutils 2.36
The following procedure to build xen/pvgrub is broken.
git clone https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/grub.git
cd grub
./bootstrap
mkdir build-xen
cd build-xen
../configure --with-platform=xen
make
It fails with the message:
/usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/10/../../../../x86_64-suse-linux/bin/ld:
section .note.gnu.property VMA [0000000000400158,0000000000400187]
overlaps section .bss VMA [000000000000f000,000000000041e1af]
The most significant factor is that new assembler (GNU as) generates the
.note.gnu.property section as default. This note section overlaps with
.bss because it doesn't reposition with -Wl,-Ttext,0 with which the base
address of .text section is set, rather the address of .note.gnu.property
is calculated for some reason from 0x400000 where the ELF executable
defaults to start.
Using -Ttext-segment doesn't help either, though it is said to set the
address of the first byte of the text segment according to "man ld".
What it actually does is to override the default 0x400000, aka the image
base address, to something else. The entire process can be observed in
the default linker script used by gcc [1]. Therefore we can't expect it
to achieve the same thing as -Ttext given that the first segment where
.text resides is offset by SIZEOF_HEADERS plus some sections may be
preceding it within the first segment. The end result is .text always
has to start with non-zero address with -Wl,-Ttext-segment,0 if using
default linker script.
It is also worth mentioning that binutils upstream apparently doesn't
seem to consider this as a bug [2] and proposed to use -Wl,-Ttext-segment,0
which is not fruitful as what has been tested by Gentoo [3].
As long as GRUB didn't use ISA information encoded in .note.gnu.property,
we can safely drop it via -Wa,-mx86-used-note=no assembler option to
fix the linker error above.
This is considered a better approach than using custom linker script to
drop the .note.gnu.property section because object file manipulation can
also be hampered one way or the other in that linker script may not be
helpful. See also this commit removing the section in the process of objcopy.
