But kernel linker script only contains a single NOTE segment: PHDRS { text PT_LOAD FLAGS(5); data PT_LOAD FLAGS(6); percpu PT_LOAD FLAGS(6); init PT_LOAD FLAGS(7); note PT_NOTE FLAGS(0); } SECTIONS { ... .notes : AT(ADDR(.notes) - 0xffffffff80000000) { __start_notes = .; KEEP(*(.not e.*)) __stop_notes = .; } :text :note ... } The NOTE segment generated by kernel linker script is aligned to 4 bytes. But .note.gnu.property section must be aligned to 8 bytes on x86-64 and we get [hjl@gnu-skx-1 linux]$ readelf -n vmlinux Displaying notes found in: .notes Owner Data size Description Xen 0x00000006 Unknown note type: (0x00000006) description data: 6c 69 6e 75 78 00 Xen 0x00000004 Unknown note type: (0x00000007) description data: 32 2e 36 00 xen-3.0 0x00000005 Unknown note type: (0x006e6558) description data: 08 00 00 00 03 readelf: Warning: note with invalid namesz and/or descsz found at offset 0x50 readelf: Warning: type: 0xffffffff, namesize: 0x006e6558, descsize: 0x80000000, alignment: 8 [hjl@gnu-skx-1 linux]$ Since note.gnu.property section in kernel image is never used, this patch discards .note.gnu.property sections in kernel linker script by adding /DISCARD/ : { *(.note.gnu.property) } before kernel NOTE segment in generic NOTES.
