+From: Nick Desaulniers <ndesaulniers@google.com>
+
+commit 311bea3cb9ee20ef150ca76fc60a592bf6b159f5 upstream.
+
+With GNU binutils 2.35+, linking with BFD produces warnings for vmlinux:
+aarch64-linux-gnu-ld: warning: -z norelro ignored
+
+BFD can produce this warning when the target emulation mode does not
+support RELRO program headers, and -z relro or -z norelro is passed.
+
+Alan Modra clarifies:
+ The default linker emulation for an aarch64-linux ld.bfd is
+ -maarch64linux, the default for an aarch64-elf linker is
+ -maarch64elf. They are not equivalent. If you choose -maarch64elf
+ you get an emulation that doesn't support -z relro.
+
+The ARCH=arm64 kernel prefers -maarch64elf, but may fall back to
+-maarch64linux based on the toolchain configuration.
+
+LLD will always create RELRO program header regardless of target
+emulation.
+
+To avoid the above warning when linking with BFD, pass -z norelro only
+when linking with LLD or with -maarch64linux.
+
+Fixes: 3b92fa7485eb ("arm64: link with -z norelro regardless of CONFIG_RELOCATABLE")
+Fixes: 3bbd3db86470 ("arm64: relocatable: fix inconsistencies in linker script and options")

+commit b744b43f79cc758127042e71f9ad7b1afda30f84 upstream.
+
+Similarly to the CC_IS_CLANG config, add LD_IS_LLD to avoid GNU ld
+specific logic such as ld-version or ld-ifversion and gain the
+ability to select potential features that depend on the linker at
+configuration time such as LTO.
