UpstreamStatus: Merged with 5.15.148

This patch will not go upstream since 6.7-rc1 converts this script into a makefile snippet, and since this patch is already present
in upstream 5.15.148 and the master branch for Noble.

New pahole (version 1.24) generates by default new BTF_KIND_ENUM64 BTF tag,
which is not supported by stable kernel.

As a result the kernel with CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF option will fail to
compile with following error:

  BTFIDS  vmlinux
FAILED: load BTF from vmlinux: Invalid argument

New pahole provides --skip_encoding_btf_enum64 option to skip BTF_KIND_ENUM64
generation and produce BTF supported by stable kernel.

(cherry picked from commit b775fbf532dc01ae53a6fc56168fd30cb4b0c658 in 5.15.148 tree)

Rejected for the following reasons:
Ok, so this patch is taken from the upstream stable repository. In which 
case the proper provenance (including commit message) needs to be 
preserved. That is if there is a need for speed. Eventually all 
linux-5.15.y will be picked into Jammy, we just lag a bit behind 
(currently we have 5.15.143 committed).
So what the patch should look like is:

Subject: [PATCH] kbuild: Add skip_encoding_btf_enum64 option to pahole

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2051376

New pahole (version 1.24) generates by default new BTF_KIND_ENUM64 BTF tag,
which is not supported by stable kernel.

As a result the kernel with CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_BTF option will fail to
compile with following error:

   BTFIDS  vmlinux
FAILED: load BTF from vmlinux: Invalid argument

New pahole provides --skip_encoding_btf_enum64 option to skip 
BTF_KIND_ENUM64
generation and produce BTF supported by stable kernel.

Adding this option to scripts/pahole-flags.sh.

This change does not have equivalent commit in linus tree, because linus 
tree
has support for BTF_KIND_ENUM64 tag, so it does not need to be disabled.

The second question I had in previous replies was whether we also need 
to do something for HWE kernels. Jammy (5.15) fails to compile when 
pahole >= 1.24 is available. This must be a configuration other than 
what we use by default for the distro, otherwise we should have seen 
this. But we also have HWE kernels (now 6.5, at some point 6.8). I 
currently do not see something adjusted in the 6.5 kernel. That might 
mean in Mantic there is a pahole version which does not have the 
problem. Or it is the kernel Makefiles which got adjusted, so this is no 
longer necessary.

I think this ^ in the upstream stable commit message answered the 
question I asked below. So it is the kernel build environment that 
matters. And only the old kernel version requires adjustment when being 
compiled with a pahole version 1.24 or later.

Oh and I forgot to properly change the subject here:

Subject: [SRU Jammy][PATCH] kbuild: Add skip_encoding_btf_enum64 option 
to pahole

The "UBUNTU: SAUCE" was incorrect advice believing it is not cherry 
picked from a upstream source. Since it is 5.15.248 it is not required. 
Just that upstream means Linus primary tree and upstream stable is a 
different repository. So SHA1 references do not match. And in this case 
this was a change _only_ for linux-5.15.y.
