Subject: [PATCH] powerpc: ppc32 needs elf_read_implies_exec()
Date: Fri, 17 Apr 2009 13:03:01 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1239991381-11649-1-git-send-email-galak@kernel.crashing.org> (raw)

On ppc64 we implemented elf_read_implies_exec() for 32-bit binaries
because old toolchains had bugs with regards to marking PHDRs as
executable that needed to be.  For some reason we didn't do this on
ppc32 builds.  This hadn't been an issue until recent changes to I$/D$
handling that impacted the per-page exec handling on embedded PPC.
