When I built 4.3.0-7-generic on arm64(mustang) Wily with the following
steps,
fakeroot debian/rules clean
fakeroot debian/rules binary-generic
by this compiler:
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ gcc -v
Using built-in specs.
COLLECT_GCC=gcc
COLLECT_LTO_WRAPPER=/usr/lib/gcc/aarch64-linux-gnu/5/lto-wrapper
Target: aarch64-linux-gnu

--host=aarch64-linux-gnu --target=aarch64-linux-gnu
the built image just works well:
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ uname -a
Linux ubuntu 4.3.0-7-generic #18 SMP Tue Jan 12 10:19:24 EST 2016
aarch64 aarch64 aarch64 GNU/Linux
But I can see the issue when booting a kernel from the following package[1]:
http://launchpadlibrarian.net/230287220/linux-
image-4.3.0-5-generic_4.3.0-5.16_arm64.deb
It is a build environment issue instead of kernel issue, please see
comments from Ard Biesheuvel <ard.biesheu...@linaro.org> [2]:
RELA #275 is the relocation against ADRP instructions, which GCC
should not emit anymore when -mcmodel=large is in effect.
Can you confirm that the modules have been rebuilt with this config as
well? Can you double check the GCC command line (with V=1) when doing
'make modules' to ensure that '-mcmodel=large' is being passed? Can
you check with 'readelf -r' which objects still contain
R_AARCH64_ADR_PREL_PG_HI21 relocations?
I have checked the gcc flag in my building environment, and '-mcmodel=large' is
passed, and CONFIG_ARM64_ERRATUM_843419 is enabled too.
I don't know how the image in [1] is built, so could anyone check the build
environment for this building?

You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel

Title:
arm64: "unsupported RELA relocation"
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
linux-image-4.3.0-5-generic 4.3.0-5.16 arm64 fails to load modules
(and therefore boot). It emits messages like the following for each
attempted module load:
[ 2.156817] module libahci: unsupported RELA relocation: 275
This is reminiscent of LP: #1502946 - except that fix appears to still
be in-tact. What has changed, however, is the build environment. If I
rebuild the same kernel source in a wily chroot, it boots fine.
Marking "Confirmed" because Paulo Pisatti reported this to me, and I
reproduced.
