SubjectPossible gcc 4.8.5 bug about RELOC_HIDE marcro
Date
I tried to build kernel 4.14-rc1 on a arm64 server in distro centos 7.3. 
The gcc version is 4.8.5

It was built successfully but failed to boot with the call trace below:

I tried to disassemble the code and found the related lines:

seems the compiler doesn't work correctly, should it be some thing like

add     x2, x2, x25 ??

instead of

add     x2, x2, x2

Besides, I git bisect and find this *kernel* patch cause the compiler bug:

commit    c350c008297643dad3c395c2fd92230142da5cf6
srcu: Prevent sdp->srcu_gp_seq_needed counter wrap

In this bug, srcu uses a percpu ptr which will call RELOC_HIDE. After I
remove

the RELOC_HIDE code, this bug disappearred.


This bug is not in latest gcc version


Cheers,

Justin(Jia He)
