Towards the goal of removing cc-ldoption, prefer ld-option, or better
yet, require --Wl,--hash-style=sysv since the selftest for vdso's
requires DT_HASH.

What impact does this have on the minimum binutils version needed to
compile the kernel?

Gr{oetje,eeting}s,

See his ia64 variant:
https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/1065347/


He commented a stronger reason
"it seems that --hash-style= was added to binutils 2.17.50.0.2 in 2006.
The minimal required version of binutils for the kernel according to
Documentation/process/changes.rst is 2.20"


Nick,
Why don't you rephrase the commit log like your ia64 one?
It will clarify this change has no impact.


BTW, I think the subject should be
"-Wl,--hash-style=sysv" instead of
"--Wl,--hash-style=sysv"

(single hash before "Wl")

I mean "single dash"
just in case.  :)
