mainlining shenanigans
f65cf84ee7
When using LLVM's integrated assembler (LLVM_IAS=1) while building
x86_64_defconfig + CONFIG_KVM=y + CONFIG_KVM_AMD=y, the following build
error occurs:
$ make LLVM=1 LLVM_IAS=1 arch/x86/kvm/svm/sev.o
arch/x86/kvm/svm/sev.c:2004:15: error: too few operands for instruction
asm volatile(__ex("vmsave") : : "a" (__sme_page_pa(sd->save_area)) : "memory");
^
arch/x86/kvm/svm/sev.c:28:17: note: expanded from macro '__ex'
#define __ex(x) __kvm_handle_fault_on_reboot(x)

./arch/x86/include/asm/kvm_host.h:1646:10: note: expanded from macro '__kvm_handle_fault_on_reboot'
"666: \n\t" \

vmsave

1 error generated.
This happens because LLVM currently does not support calling vmsave
without the fixed register operand (%rax for 64-bit and %eax for
32-bit). This will be fixed in LLVM 12 but the kernel currently supports
LLVM 10.0.1 and newer so this needs to be handled.
Add the proper register using the _ASM_AX macro, which matches the
vmsave call in vmenter.S.

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.
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.
