Subject: [PATCH v2 2/5] vmlinux.lds.h: drop unused HEADERED_SECTION* macros
Date: Thu, 07 May 2026 14:40:06 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260507-asm-generic-1-v2-2-47c52759d268@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260507-asm-generic-1-v2-0-47c52759d268@gmail.com>
These macros are unused, no point in carrying them any more.
NB: these macros were just moved to bounded_sections.lds.h, from
vmlinux.lds.h, which is the known entity, and therefore more
meaningful in the 1-line summary, so thats what I used as the topic.
