Building the overflow kunit tests with clang-11 fails with:
$ ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run --arch=arm --make_options LLVM=1 \
overflow
...
ld.lld: error: undefined symbol: __mulodi4
...
Clang 11 and earlier generate unwanted libcalls for signed output,
unsigned input.
Disable these tests for now, but should these become used in the kernel
we might consider that as justification for dropping clang-11 support.
Keep the clang-11 build alive a little bit longer.
Avoid -Wunused-function warnings via __maybe_unused. To test W=1:
$ make LLVM=1 -j128 defconfig
$ ./scripts/config -e KUNIT -e KUNIT_ALL
$ make LLVM=1 -j128 olddefconfig lib/overflow_kunit.o W=1

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 Restructured Text 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.
