bpfilter_umh is built for the default machine bit of the compiler, which may not match to the bit size of the kernel. This happens in the scenario below: You can use biarch GCC that defaults to 64-bit for building the 32-bit kernel. In this case, Kbuild passes -m32 to teach the compiler to produce 32-bit kernel space objects. However, it is missing when building bpfilter_umh. It is built as a 64-bit ELF, and then embedded into the 32-bit kernel. The 32-bit kernel and 64-bit umh is a bad combination. In theory, we can have 32-bit umh running on 64-bit kernel, but we do not have a good reason to support such a usecase. The best is to match the bit size between them. Pass -m32 or -m64 to the umh build command if it is found in $(KBUILD_CFLAGS). Evaluate CC_CAN_LINK against the kernel bit-size. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> |

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.
