The "P" asm operand modifier is a x86 target-specific modifier. For x86_64, when used with a symbol reference, the "%P" modifier emits "sym" instead of "sym(%rip)". This property is currently used to issue bare symbol reference. The generic "a" operand modifier should be used instead. The "a" asm operand modifier substitutes a memory reference, with the actual operand treated as address. For x86_64, when a symbol is provided, the "a" modifier emits "sym(%rip)" instead of "sym", enabling shorter %rip-relative addressing. Also note that unlike GCC, clang emits %rip-relative symbol reference with "P" asm operand modifier, so the patch also unifies symbol handling with both compilers. No functional changes intended.

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.
