Naresh, any chance you could test again adding the following:
diff --git a/arch/sh/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S b/arch/sh/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S index 3161b9ccd2a5..b6276a3521d7 100644 --- a/arch/sh/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S +++ b/arch/sh/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S @@ -4,6 +4,7 @@

*/ OUTPUT_ARCH(sh) +#define RUNTIME_DISCARD_EXIT #include <asm/thread_info.h> #include <asm/cache.h> #include <asm/vmlinux.lds.h>
My guess is build environment is using ld < 2.36?? and this is probably similar to: a494398bde27 ("s390: define RUNTIME_DISCARD_EXIT to fix link error with GNU ld < 2.36") 4b9880dbf3bd ("powerpc/vmlinux.lds: Define RUNTIME_DISCARD_EXIT")

This is also occurring in latest upstream:

These build errors started from v6.2-rc2 on the mainline [1] & [2].

FWIW, the above patch resolves this.
Yes. Tested and confirmed it fixes the reported problem.
How many more architectures need something similar?
Now I see it on sh with gcc-8 only on the mainline.
OTOH, It was noticed on earlier stable-rc 5.4 for x86, i386, powerpc, sh and s390.
