From dadc4a1bb9f0095343ed9dd4f1d9f3825d7b3e45 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nicholas Piggin Date: Sat, 26 Nov 2016 14:20:31 +1100 Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/64: Fix placement of .text to be immediately following .head.text Do not introduce any additional alignment. Placement of text section will be set by fixed section macros. Without this, output section alignment defaults to 4096, which makes BookE text section start at 0x1000 when it is expected to start at 0x100. This was introduced by commit 57f266497d81 ("powerpc: Use gas sections for arranging exception vectors") and was caught with the scripted head section checker (not yet merged).
