Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/boot: Check for ld-option support
Date: Tue, 1 Apr 2025 06:12:18 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250401004218.24869-1-maddy@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
Commit 579aee9fc594 ("powerpc: suppress some linker warnings in recent linker versions")
enabled support to add linker option "--no-warn-rwx-segments",
if the version is greater than 2.39. Similar build warning were
reported recently from linker version 2.35.2.
ld: warning: arch/powerpc/boot/zImage.epapr has a LOAD segment with RWX permissions
ld: warning: arch/powerpc/boot/zImage.pseries has a LOAD segment with RWX permissions
Fix the warning by checking for "--no-warn-rwx-segments"
option support in linker to enable it, instead of checking
for the version range.
Fixes: Commit 579aee9fc594 ("powerpc: suppress some linker warnings in recent linker versions")
Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/linuxppc-dev/61cf556c-4947-4bd6-af63-892fc0966dad@linux.ibm.com/
