x86/boot: Mark global variables as static
Mike Lothian reports that after commit 964124a97b97 ("efi/x86: Remove extra headroom for setup block") gcc 10.1.0 fails with HOSTCC arch/x86/boot/tools/build /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/10.1.0/../../../../x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: error: linker defined: multiple definition of '_end' /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/10.1.0/../../../../x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: /tmp/ccEkW0jM.o: previous definition here collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status make[1]: *** [scripts/Makefile.host:103: arch/x86/boot/tools/build] Error 1 make: *** [arch/x86/Makefile:303: bzImage] Error 2 The issue is with the _end variable that was added, to hold the end of the compressed kernel from zoffsets.h (ZO__end). The name clashes with the linker-defined _end symbol that indicates the end of the build program itself. Even when there is no compile-time error, this causes build to use memory past the end of its .bss section. To solve this, mark _end as static, and for symmetry, mark the rest of the variables that keep track of symbols from the compressed kernel as static as well.
