Subject: [PATCH v3 02/16] powerpc: Override __ALIGN and __ALIGN_STR macros
Date: Mon, 12 Sep 2022 13:50:06 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220912082020.226755-3-sv@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220912082020.226755-1-sv@linux.ibm.com>

In a subsequent patch, we would want to annotate powerpc assembly functions
with SYM_FUNC_START_LOCAL macro. This macro depends on __ALIGN macro.

The default expansion of __ALIGN macro is:
        #define __ALIGN      .align 4,0x90

So, override __ALIGN and __ALIGN_STR macros to use the same alignment as
that of the existing _GLOBAL macro. Also, do not pad with 0x90, because
repeated 0x90s are not a nop or trap on powerpc.
