[PATCH v2 3/4] x86: disable llvm-cov instrumentation

From: Wentao Zhang <hidden>
Date: 2024-09-05 04:34:42
Also in: linux-arch, linux-efi, linux-kbuild, linux-um, lkml, llvm
Subsystem: the rest, x86 architecture (32-bit and 64-bit) · Maintainers: Linus Torvalds, Thomas Gleixner, Ingo Molnar, Borislav Petkov, Dave Hansen

Disable instrumentation for arch/x86/crypto/curve25519-x86_64.c. Otherwise
compilation would fail with "error: inline assembly requires more registers
than available".

Similar behavior was reported with gcov as well. See c390c452ebeb ("crypto:
x86/curve25519 - disable gcov").
