Subject: [PATCH v2 11/12] retpoline/objtool: Disable some objtool warnings
Date: Wed, 3 Jan 2018 18:00:18 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180104020019.1173-12-andi@firstfloor.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180104020019.1173-1-andi@firstfloor.org>
From: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>
With the indirect call thunk enabled compiler two objtool
warnings are triggered very frequently and make the build
very noisy.
I don't see a good way to avoid them, so just disable them
for now.
