support multiple .discard.* sections to avoid section type conflicts

2010-07-28T05:45:19Z

gcc 4.4.4 will complain if you use a .discard section for both text and data ("causes a section type conflict"). Add support for ".discard.*" sections, and use .discard.text for a dummy function in the x86 RESERVE_BRK() macro. Signed-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge

vmlinux.lds: fix .data..init_task output section (fix popwerpc boot)

2010-07-23T03:45:12Z

The .data..init_task output section was missing a load offset causing a popwerpc target to fail to boot. Sean MacLennan tracked it down to the definition of INIT_TASK_DATA_SECTION(). There are only two users of INIT_TASK_DATA_SECTION() in the kernel today: cris and popwerpc. cris do not support relocatable kernels and is thus not impacted by this change. Fix INIT_TASK_DATA_SECTION() to specify load offset like all other output sections. Reported-by: Sean MacLennan Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt

tracing: Properly align linker defined symbols

2010-07-20T23:02:52Z

We define a number of symbols in the linker scipt like this: __start_syscalls_metadata = .; *(__syscalls_metadata) But we do not know the alignment of "." when we assign the __start_syscalls_metadata symbol. gcc started to uses bigger alignment for structs (32 bytes), so we saw situations where the linker due to alignment constraints increased the value of "." after the symbol assignment. This resulted in boot fails. Fix this by forcing a 32 byte alignment of "." before the assignment. This patch introduces the forced alignment for ftrace_events and syscalls_metadata. It may be required in more places.
