For at least the mvc and clc instructions llvm's integrated assembler can
generate incorrect code. In particular this happens with decompressor boot
code. The reason seems to be that relocations for the second displacement
of each instruction are at incorrect locations (-/+: gas vs llvm IAS):
mvc __LC_IO_NEW_PSW(16),.Lnewpsw
results in
4: d2 0f 01 f0 00 00 mvc 496(16,%r0),0
- 8: R_390_12 .head.text+0x10
+ 6: R_390_12 .head.text+0x10
and
clc 0(3,%r4),.L_hdr
results in
258: d5 02 40 00 00 00 clc 0(3,%r4),0
- 25c: R_390_12 .head.text+0x324
+ 25a: R_390_12 .head.text+0x324
Workaround this by writing the code in a different way.

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.
