[PATCH] x86/build: Raise the minimum LLVM version to 15.0.0
Posted by Nathan Chancellor 9 months, 4 weeks ago
In a similar vein as commit a3e8fe814ad1 ("x86/build: Raise the minimum
GCC version to 8.1"), bump the minimum supported version of LLVM for
building x86 kernels to 15.0.0, as that is the first version that has
support for '-mstack-protector-guard-symbol', which is used
unconditionally after commit 80d47defddc0 ("x86/stackprotector/64:
Convert to normal per-CPU variable"):

  clang-14: error: unknown argument: '-mstack-protector-guard-symbol=__ref_stack_chk_guard'

Fixes: 80d47defddc0 ("x86/stackprotector/64: Convert to normal per-CPU variable")
