Subject: [S390] bss section clearing.
Date: Wed, 21 Feb 2007 11:03:08 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070221100308.GJ13419@skybase> (raw)
From: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com>
[S390] bss section clearing.
Clear only memory from __bss_start to __bss_stop when clearing the bss
section. Not until _end, which currently happens to be the same.
