Subject: [PATCH 4/5] powerpc: Support feature fixups in modules
Date: Fri, 13 Oct 2006 18:04:35 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1160726675.4792.225.camel@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
This patch adds support for feature fixups in modules. This involves
adding support for R_PPC64_REL64 relocs to the 64 bits module loader.
It also modifies modpost.c to ignore the powerpc fixup sections (or it
would warn when used in .init.text).
