From b9dfe0bed999d23ee8838d389637dd8aef83fafa Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jiri Kosina Date: Fri, 9 Jan 2015 10:53:21 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] livepatch: handle ancient compilers with more grace We are aborting a build in case when gcc doesn't support fentry on x86_64 (regs->ip modification can't really reliably work with mcount). This however breaks allmodconfig for people with older gccs that don't support -mfentry. Turn the build-time failure into runtime failure, resulting in the whole infrastructure not being initialized if CC_USING_FENTRY is unset.
