From: Vineet Gupta Date: Wed, 28 Sep 2016 21:43:25 +0000 (-0700) Subject: ARC: .exit.* sections can be discarded in .eh_frame regime X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=99a2ca65d558ecdea4c184baad6730f2aec3aad0;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git ARC: .exit.* sections can be discarded in .eh_frame regime We used to keep the .exit.* sections as linker would fail in final link due to references from .debug_frame which itself could not be discardrd due to the forced "write,alloc" attributes for it. | LD init/built-in.o | `.exit.text' referenced in section `.debug_frame' of arch/arc/built-in.o: defined in discarded section `.exit.text' of arch/arc/built-in.o | Makefile:949: recipe for target 'vmlinux' failed With .debug_frame now retired, this hack is no longer needed. kernel binary is now a little bit smaller as well. closes STAR 9000549913 Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta --- diff --git a/arch/arc/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S b/arch/arc/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S index bb6d8c5ff2e9..36611072305f 100644 --- a/arch/arc/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S +++ b/arch/arc/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S @@ -82,14 +82,6 @@ SECTIONS PERCPU_SECTION(L1_CACHE_BYTES) - /* - * .exit.text is discard at runtime, not link time, to deal with - * references from unwinding sections - * It will be init freed, being inside [__init_start : __init_end] - */ - .exit.text : { EXIT_TEXT } - .exit.data : { EXIT_DATA } - . = ALIGN(PAGE_SIZE); __init_end = .;
