In one rare case, Clang generated the following code:
5ca: 83 e0 21 and $0x21,%eax
5cd: b9 04 00 00 00 mov $0x4,%ecx
5d2: ff 24 c5 00 00 00 00 jmpq *0x0(,%rax,8)
5d5: R_X86_64_32S .rodata+0x38
which uses the corresponding jump table relocations:

Since %eax was masked with 0x21, only the first two and the last two
entries are possible.
Objtool doesn't actually emulate all the code, so it isn't smart enough
to know that all the middle entries aren't reachable. They point to the
NOP padding area after the end of the function, so objtool seg faulted
when it tried to dereference a NULL insn->func.
After this fix, objtool still gives an "unreachable" error because it
stops reading the jump table when it encounters the bad addresses:
/home/jpoimboe/objtool-tests/adm1275.o: warning: objtool: adm1275_probe()+0x828: unreachable instruction
While the above code is technically correct, it's very wasteful of
memory -- it uses 34 jump table entries when only 4 are needed. It's
also not possible for objtool to validate this type of switch table
because the unused entries point outside the function and objtool has no
way of determining if that's intentional. Hopefully the Clang folks can
fix it.

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.
