From: Peter Oberparleiter Date: Wed, 17 Jun 2009 23:28:03 +0000 (-0700) Subject: kernel: constructor support X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b99b87f70c7785ab1e253c6220f4b0b57ce3a7f7;p=GitHub%2Fmt8127%2Fandroid_kernel_alcatel_ttab.git kernel: constructor support Call constructors (gcc-generated initcall-like functions) during kernel start and module load. Constructors are e.g. used for gcov data initialization. Disable constructor support for usermode Linux to prevent conflicts with host glibc.
