| |
The first patch adds the PowerPC name and the PPC_ELFNOTE_CAPABILITIES type in the kernel binary ELF note. This type is a bitmap that can be used to advertise kernel capabilities to userland.
The second patch adds a new documentation file to detail the ELF Note PowerPC namespace and the PPC_ELFNOTE_CAPABILITIES type.
V2: * Create the header arch/powerpc/include/asm/elfnote.h with the new type PPC_ELFNOTE_CAPABILITIES * Add documentation file in powerpc dir
