The PowerPC vDSO uses $(CC) to link, which differs from the rest of the
kernel, which uses $(LD) directly. As a result, the default linker of
the compiler is used, which may differ from the linker requested by the
builder. For example:
$ make ARCH=powerpc LLVM=1 mrproper defconfig arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso/
...
$ llvm-readelf -p .comment arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso/vdso{32,64}.so.dbg

LLVM=1 sets LD=ld.lld but ld.lld is not used to link the vDSO; GNU ld is
because "ld" is the default linker for clang on most Linux platforms.
This is a problem for Clang's Link Time Optimization as implemented in
the kernel because use of GNU ld with LTO requires the LLVMgold plugin,
which is not technically supported for ld.bfd per
https://llvm.org/docs/GoldPlugin.html. Furthermore, if LLVMgold.so is
missing from a user's system, the build will fail, even though LTO as it
is implemented in the kernel requires ld.lld to avoid this dependency in
the first place.
Ultimately, the PowerPC vDSO should be converted to compiling and
linking with $(CC) and $(LD) respectively but there were issues last
time this was tried, potentially due to older but supported tool
versions. To avoid regressing GCC + binutils, use the compiler option
'-fuse-ld', which tells the compiler which linker to use when it is
invoked as both the compiler and linker. Use '-fuse-ld=lld' when
LD=ld.lld has been specified (CONFIG_LD_IS_LLD) so that the vDSO is
linked with the same linker as the rest of the kernel.

LD can be a full path to ld.lld, which will not be handled properly by
'-fuse-ld=lld' if the full path to ld.lld is outside of the compiler's
search path. '-fuse-ld' can take a path to the linker but it is
deprecated in clang 12.0.0; '--ld-path' is preferred for this scenario.
Use '--ld-path' if it is supported, as it will handle a full path or
just 'ld.lld' properly. See the LLVM commit below for the full details
of '--ld-path'.

When linking vdso{32,64}.so.dbg with ld.lld, there is a warning about
not finding _start for the starting address:
ld.lld: warning: cannot find entry symbol _start; not setting start address
ld.lld: warning: cannot find entry symbol _start; not setting start address
Looking at GCC + GNU ld, the entry point address is 0x0:
$ llvm-readelf -h vdso{32,64}.so.dbg &| rg "(File|Entry point address):"
File: vdso32.so.dbg
Entry point address: 0x0
File: vdso64.so.dbg
Entry point address: 0x0
This matches what ld.lld emits:
$ powerpc64le-linux-gnu-readelf -p .comment vdso{32,64}.so.dbg
File: vdso32.so.dbg

Remove ENTRY to remove the warning, as it is unnecessary for the vDSO to
function correctly.

As reported by Alan, the CFI (Call Frame Information) in the VDSO time
routines is incorrect since commit ce7d8056e38b ("powerpc/vdso: Prepare
for switching VDSO to generic C implementation.").
DWARF has a concept called the CFA (Canonical Frame Address), which on
powerpc is calculated as an offset from the stack pointer (r1). That
means when the stack pointer is changed there must be a corresponding
CFI directive to update the calculation of the CFA.
The current code is missing those directives for the changes to r1,
which prevents gdb from being able to generate a backtrace from inside
VDSO functions, eg:
Breakpoint 1, 0x00007ffff7f804dc in __kernel_clock_gettime ()
(gdb) bt
#0 0x00007ffff7f804dc in __kernel_clock_gettime ()
#1 0x00007ffff7d8872c in clock_gettime@@GLIBC_2.17 () from /lib64/libc.so.6
#2 0x00007fffffffd960 in ?? ()
#3 0x00007ffff7d8872c in clock_gettime@@GLIBC_2.17 () from /lib64/libc.so.6
Backtrace stopped: frame did not save the PC
Alan helpfully describes some rules for correctly maintaining the CFI information:
1) Every adjustment to the current frame address reg (ie. r1) must be
described, and exactly at the instruction where r1 changes. Why?
Because stack unwinding might want to access previous frames.
2) If a function changes LR or any non-volatile register, the save
location for those regs must be given. The CFI can be at any
instruction after the saves up to the point that the reg is
changed.
(Exception: LR save should be described before a bl. not after)
3) If asychronous unwind info is needed then restores of LR and
non-volatile regs must also be described. The CFI can be at any
instruction after the reg is restored up to the point where the
save location is (potentially) trashed.
Fix the inability to backtrace by adding CFI directives describing the
changes to r1, ie. satisfying rule 1.
Also change the information for LR to point to the copy saved on the
stack, not the value in r0 that will be overwritten by the function
call.
Finally, add CFI directives describing the save/restore of r2.
With the fix gdb can correctly back trace and navigate up and down the stack:
Breakpoint 1, 0x00007ffff7f804dc in __kernel_clock_gettime ()
(gdb) bt
#0 0x00007ffff7f804dc in __kernel_clock_gettime ()

cvdso_call_time macro is very similar to cvdso_call macro.
Add a call_time argument to cvdso_call which is 0 by default
and set to 1 when using cvdso_call to call __c_kernel_time().
Return returned value as is with CR[SO] cleared when it is used
for time().
