From f2c356d1d0f048e88c281a4178c8b2db138d3ac1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Josh Poimboeuf Date: Wed, 17 Sep 2025 09:04:05 -0700 Subject: kbuild,objtool: Defer objtool validation step for CONFIG_KLP_BUILD In preparation for klp-build, defer objtool validation for CONFIG_KLP_BUILD kernels until the final pre-link archive (e.g., vmlinux.o, module-foo.o) is built. This will simplify the process of generating livepatch modules. Delayed objtool is generally preferred anyway, and is already standard for IBT and LTO. Eventually the per-translation-unit mode will be phased out.
