platform: imx93_a55: handle linker additions at SOF level #9372

LaurentiuM1234 · 2024-08-19T11:05:18Z

SOF requires some additions to the Zephyr linker script. This should be handled inside SOF instead of Zephyr.

Since 8f33d9dc8498 ("soc: imx93: remove custom linker script") removes the custom linker script from Zephyr, this means the custom SOF linker sections will have to be handled on SOF side.

This also includes a Zephyr hash bump to pull/77228/head to pull in the following commits:

8f33d9dc8498 soc: imx93: remove custom linker script

Depends on: zephyrproject-rtos/zephyr#77228

OK, this difference in https://github.com/thesofproject/sof/actions/runs/10452157029/job/28940502308?pr=9372
was very unusual and interesting:

After a fortunately short time, I found the root cause in zephyrproject-rtos/zephyr#77228

@LaurentiuM1234 LaurentiuM1234 force-pushed the fix/imx93_linker_removal branch from 8f33d9d to 03b829c

A GitHub race condition between @LaurentiuM1234 and... @LaurentiuM1234 !

I have debugged countless build reproducibility issues but I had never seen any like this. @LaurentiuM1234 , please be nicer on my heart, it's not getting any younger :-D

@teburd can you comment here ?

Comments on this change would be very much appreciated. Especially regarding the idea of using linker script snippets on SOF-side to handle any required additions.

My thinking is that all things linker should really come from Zephyr and we should transition towards that goal, but I dont know yet if this is missing from Zephyr or how much effort would be needed.

mm, I would think the Zephyr linker stuff should be relatively generic and allow it to be used by as many applications as possible. Adding application-specific linker snippets on Zephyr side is not that big of a deal since you'd encase these in ifdef blocks but it just makes the SOC scripts (or the SOC CMakeLists.txt files) messier I believe?

I think Xtensa is a bit special in this regard since there's no architecture generic linker script so each vendor has its own linker script anyways. Instead, ARM and ARM64 have a "generic", architecture linker script also used as the SOC linker script.

Anyways, since we do have the zephyr_linker_sources cmake commands I would think we should keep the Zephyr linker scripts "clean" and handle all the additions required by SOF here.

lgirdwood · 2024-08-22T15:29:46Z

@nashif who can give advise on Zephyr linker here ? Can we support application linker overlays for certain application sections ?

LaurentiuM1234 · 2024-08-26T10:15:09Z

any other take on this? if not, I'd prefer handling the SOF-related linker additions in SOF if reasonable to do so/ if Zephyr infrastructure allows us to do so.

@LaurentiuM1234 we can merge after the Zephyr part is done.

Its best practice for bisect-ability to upstream the west update 1st. Can you do 2 patches, one for west 1st and 2nd patch for linker ?

You mean have them in different PRs? If so, the west.yml change will break the arm64 CI job w/o the other patch. If that's alright then I'm fine with it.

kv2019i · 2024-09-16T11:42:50Z

@LaurentiuM1234 @lgirdwood A combine patch is ok (and even required) if Zephyr side has a change that breaks SOF build. With two separate commits, the SOF bisect is broken, so better to have the west.yml update in the same commit (and maintain bisect-capability on SOF side).

Changed the Zephyr hash bump to dc5f1bfb3f2e ("west: fix for Python prior to 3.10"). Hopefully, that'll take care of the internal CI build failures.
