There are two different ways that LLVM can expand kCFI operand bundles in LLVM IR: generically in the middle end or using an architecture specific sequence when lowering LLVM IR to machine code in the backend. The generic pass allows any architecture to take advantage of kCFI but the expansion of these bundles in the middle end can mess with optimizations that may turn indirect calls into direct calls when the call target is known at compile time, such as after inlining. Add __nocfi_generic, dependent on an architecture selecting CONFIG_ARCH_USES_CFI_GENERIC_LLVM_PASS, to disable kCFI bundle generation in functions where only the generic kCFI pass may cause problems.

README
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.
