| |
It turned out there were at least three sources of the "non-allocatable section" warning.
1) SUSE specific .comment section 2) endianness issues in elf header 3) additional debug sections
I have updated kbuild-fixes.git with patches for all of the above.
But as we have seen three independent sources of this warning within short time I expect there may be yet-to-be-discovered issues.
The patches accumulated so far all looks trivially correct and Jean and Sean has been quick to test them. So unless something unexpected shows up I plan to push them within a day or two.
I would like to see them in -next for a day or two first in the hope that if other architectures has troubles they will report this before it hits upstream.
Patches will follow for reference / testing.
Sam
