Linux kernel source tree
977c4308ee
Currently rust on arm fails to compile due to '-mno-fdpic'. This flag
disables a GCC feature that we don't want for kernel builds, so let's
skip it as it doesn't apply to Clang.

[ Naresh provided the draft diff [1].
Ben explained [2]:
FDPIC is only relevant with no-MMU targets, and then only for userspace.
When configured for the arm-*-uclinuxfdpiceabi target, GCC enables FDPIC
by default to facilitate compiling userspace programs. FDPIC is never
used for the kernel, and we pass -mno-fdpic when building the kernel to
override the default and make sure FDPIC is disabled.
and [3]:
-mno-fdpic disables a GCC feature that we don't want for kernel builds.
clang does not support this feature, so it always behaves as though
-mno-fdpic is passed. Therefore, it should be fine to mix the two, at
least as far as FDPIC is concerned.

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 reStructuredText 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.
