Subject: [patch 26/34] clean up linker script using new linker script macros.
Date: Fri, 14 Aug 2009 13:25:43 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090814112618.670366400@de.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20090814112517.982007860@de.ibm.com

[-- Attachment #1: 125-vmlinux-lds-2.diff --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 3125 bytes --]

From: Nelson Elhage <nelhage@ksplice.com>

Note that this patch moves .data.init_task inside _edata.  In
addition, the alignment of .init.ramfs changes: It is now PAGE_ALIGNED
and __initramfs_end is arbitrarily aligned; Previously it was
only aligned to a 0x100-byte boundary, and always ended on an even
byte.

This change results in fewer output sections and in some data being
reordered, but should have no functional effect.
