Subject: [uml-devel] [patch 06/37] UML - Fix static linking
Date: Fri, 30 Mar 2007 14:04:12 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070330210412.GH29450@kroah.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20070330210334.GA29450@kroah.com>

[-- Attachment #1: uml-fix-static-linking.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1387 bytes --]

-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------
From: Jeff Dike <jdike@addtoit.com>

During a static link, ld has started putting a .note section in the
.uml.setup.init section.  This has the result that the UML setups
begin with 32 bytes of garbage and UML crashes immediately on boot.

This patch creates a specific .note section for ld to drop this stuff
into.
